I think that most drivers must have more sensitivity in feeling the steering wheel than myself. I have flushed some p/s systems that were really nasty and neglected and could still not feel any difference. It is a necessary preventive maintenance procedure however.

The bag method sounds fine, but I've never had any trouble at all by simply dropping the return line down into a regular drain pan. Have never had a mess to clean up when doing this. Maybe a very slight bit of spatter, but as long as the hose lays down in the bottom of the pan it is no problem.

Glad you got it done. It is a necessary PM step IMHO.

Have a great day,
