Most times yes..... but he is in Florida......Salt Water![]()
...Fresh water use only.....Just tip it over and drain it out ?? Work unit up and down ??![]()
Could try and suck it out with a shop vac and a hose inside the fill hole.
Yes, tilt it out and drain it, work it up and down and refill.
my trick. i bought one of thoose nice vaccum tools at autozone. i drain everything with that thing. just put the tube in fill resevoir and pump it dry. works great on the truck--power steering fluid-trans fluid-bleeding brake lines in truck and trailer![]()
..Vacume sounds good to me...what about the fluid thats up in the rams? should I have the system in the down or up position??...<>rob<>...
