I set up the hose as you did and turned the motor on and let it run for about 20-30 seconds. It took about that long for everything to come out, and it was BLACK. I did lock to lock during the 20 or 30 seconds, but had the car jacked up to take the weight off the wheels. I then reconnected and then filled back up. I was worried about the pump running dry, but the shop manual I read said it was no big deal for a short period of time. Once I refilled it the system took about 30 seconds to a minute to purge out all air. I then drove around for a week and the did the whole thing over again. After the second flush the fluid stayed nice and clean. I used off-brand Honda-OK power steering fluid. That was 4 years ago, and the pump has been fine.
unclematt3 nice work, thanks for the update on the off brand ps fluids. We’ve always recommend oem, but to each their own as long as it works.
167000 miles on a civic with spongy and sloppy steering. Did this flush and what a diff back to normal
nice work!
Straight up bob ross level mechanic. Alright.
MattV2099: Guns & Food why the fuck are you here
Thank u broksi! This is what I needed to to do this on my Honda this weekend
Np, enjoy!
@@NutzAboutBolts hey is the diameter for the hose the same on a 04 honda pilot?
@@tonistarks2874 they all should be.
I know you might disagree, but always use Honda genuine fluids, they only cost a few dollars more than regular brands.
I agree with you, this fluid is compatible with Honda, and we’ve used this fluid in the past before without any issues.
Yeah a lot of people stupidly believe that they can throw any kind of fluid in any kind of car, but they don't realize that engineers don't just throw these systems together and then pick a type of fluid out of a hat and pour it in. They make certain specifications for a reason. If your car says to use regular gas, then you use regular gas.. if it says use high octane supreme, then use it! If it says to use only BMW blue coolant, then for the love of God, and the poor sucker you'll eventually sell your car to, please use only BMW blue coolant. I had an e46 that had to have the WHOLE cooling system replaced, which is technically regular maintenance on those cars anyways, but the whole cooling system is made out of plastic/rubber and regular coolant eats it up.. BMW blue coolant is formulated specifically for plastics.
@@jearmeymorgan8297 i use prestone antifreeze , prestone dot 3 and 4 brake fluid 5 years on my 01 crv and 02 accord , no any problem, this year i try to mix prestone Power steering and honda Power steering in to my 01 crv,
How much power steering fluid did you need to flush the system?
Wow that fluid turned black almost instantly
Thanks for this video!
Np
very helpful video. thank you.
Thank you. One more question, where could I find one of those plugs ? What else will be good to use if I cannot acquire one ?
we got it off of a rebuilt transmission where they plug the lines. If you don't have it, you can use a 3/8 hose and plug it up with a socket closed end or a tool?
do I do this before or after I change out my rack and pinion??
I would do it before. That way any old fluid doesn't get into the new. Then just bleed it.
How can you tell the difference between the return line and the feed line?
jaymeez return line (inlet) is the small hose or the one one going to the top of the powersteering reservoir. The feed line (outlet) is the big hose or the one that is at the bottom of the powersteering reservoir.
NutzAboutBolts Thanks man, btw I have a 01' Odyssey and I just cleared out the egr code by cleaning out the carbon build up, my issue now is I have a idle problem. While taking the throttle body off I took off the Coolant hose going into the iac, so I believe the issue is just the coolant not being in the iac anymore but the radiator is full. Should I simply run the motor until it heats up so the Coolant can flow to the iac and hopefully fix the idle problem? It's reving up to 2500 then back down to 1200 and it repeats.
You mention hearing the air in the system at the end...is that a temporary side effect and will that just work itself out? You don't seem concerned, so I assume it's a minor thing, but this will be the first time I do this.
Angie Guerra yeah, eventually the air will bleed itself out when you turn the steering wheel all the way left and all the way right.
You have any idea about steering fluid on a Honda Fit 2015? I am reading that it has an electric power steering it I can't find if still requires fluid flush or change? I can't see a reservoir on the engine bay either. Thank you and great videos
+sbusumacinta from the looks of it, it doesn't look like it has a p/s fluid reservoir, so you're good.
What fluid did you use
Honda Power Steering fluids.
Thanks for the video! I need to replace my reservoir on a 2000 Accord (it's leaking) so I'm thinking I should flush the system while I'm at it.
I want to make sure I have the right tools. What type of hose did you use to connect to the return and where would I find one? I saw you mention 5/8" in one reply but another you say to get a 3/8" hose and plug, but you might have been talking about two different things.
Also what is it that you plugged exactly, did you plug the reservoir where the hose would connect to it?
Thanks in advance!
Use jack stands makes it easier..
Jose Lucio that’s not what she said 😕
So you take off one of the hoses on the reservoir? Which hose? And do you plug the hose you take off?
+Bob Meneer we remove the return hose, and plug the return on the reservoir.
The question is what hose is the return hose? there are 2 and they are not labeled. Also what did you plug the reservoir with
Randy Pratt fuckin fr
@@bazooke1014 The big one is the return hose
so which hose do you pull out to bleed the old fluid ? the one at the bottom of the reservoir?
+MFullaStyle the one that returns to the reservoir.
+NutzAboutBolts where can I get a spare hose that will fit to bleed the fluid ?
MFullaStyle
you can buy it at any autostore, make sure to get the correct size.
How do u change a 1998 Honda civic steering fluid?
Bao Lor yes
ok so in my recently purchased 99 accord 2.3 lx I've changed all clamps, the o-ring and even changed the fluid to make sure it had Honda power steering fluid and I'm still getting the whining noise, air/foaming in the reservoir. certainly not as bad as when I got the car but any ideas?
+kj manoni could be a bad pump... that's the only thing you haven't changed right?
+NutzAboutBolts correct
kj manoni
I would go with that before thinking of the rack and pinion since your fluid is still foaming up since there's air in the system.
Did you get it figured out? I have the same problem
Alex Fouts yes. I drained the fluid, took off the reservoir and cleaned it with kerosene because it had so much built-up sediment over the screen inside that i couldn’t even see through it. couldn’t believe i missed it. car hasn’t made a peep since.
Will these work on a 2000 civic si?
Yep, it'll work on most cars.
Will this work for a honda accord 1995 ?
yes
does this work for 02 acura tl type s
yes
hi I got in a wreak a couple day ago now my power steering goes in and out what should I do
+Priscilla Major in and out as in? and did any of your power steering component got damage?
+NutzAboutBolts so sometimes I turn it fine then again it hard to turn. Do I need a new power steering pump?
+Priscilla Major I would get it properly diagnose first by a mechanic before I start replacing the parts.
+NutzAboutBolts or it best to go ahead and sale it
+Priscilla Major its kinda up to you lol. I'm not sure of your situation at hand so I can't make that decision.
Can you come do mine? :-)
dafni vrionis sure thing lol
what hose size is that?
+NLx4ALLA 5/8"
