Joe- Could you give me a small walk through on what todo with this little guy? Got it today, and I gotta head to work but id like to get the air out of my system tonight...

Theres so many damn attachments and lines!

(Thanks in advance), Or if you know of a writeup online...

Ok, I just saw this one... Sorry. If you haven't figured it out yet-

This fitting goes on

Put into reservoir, push to bottom past retainer

Start truck.

Pump like a MF'er.

Most likely it will have a small leak unless the fitting is in exactly the right place, so watch the dial while you try different ways to hold the vac line until it's steady- then pump to get max pressure.

Here are the pages in the Ford service manual:

Awesome, I actually found that suction cup shortly after posting, and figured out that much. I did a few short rounds before work but was only up to like 15Hg on the vacuum when locking the wheel, it DEFINITELY helped though.

Ill have time tomorrow before work to fully do it. I think this weekend im gonna drain the whole system, and refill with new fluid, what kind would you reccomend? Should I go for the "Multi Purpose Mercon ATF" like the manual says?


EDIT* Just saw your sig, why are you selling Wedgie already!?
