See if you can drain all the old fluid, maybe disconnect the high pressure side from the pump and let it dangle down below the lowest point in the system to syphen it all out. If that works.

Re: A real mans DSM :D, Introducing, the Starion

Got the new exausht on. I dont have any good audio of it as my phone sucks, and the exhaust overloads the mic. Buuut it does sound pretty sweet. Im stoked. I also found out my PS high pressure line is leaking, and I have a heater hose leaking. Buuut I did get it bleed tho, so no more annoying grinding noise when I turn.

And a HORRID video of the car taking off. Dads driving it. Not that it matters much. My phone failed me.

Re: A real mans DSM :D, Introducing, the Starion

Well, not much new on the starion, but Im tired of the vacuum system looking like a ball of yarn, and all the random wires so its time to clean the engine bay up and try to tuck some stuff. Wish me luck!

Hey man, you want any HK$ stuff? I just got a bunch of stuff to sell on commission. I have all kinds of sweet starquest stuff. I'll be making a list pretty soon.

Re: A real mans DSM :D, Introducing, the Starion

I think my drawing explained it more. But here it is kinda in half progress. Just so when I post after pics you can maybe see the difference.
