I need to replace the steering rack on my '88 240. It looks like Jorgen is a pretty good place to get one. While still in denial about the need to replace the rack I put some Lucas stop leak stuff into the system (dumb) and now I understand I need to flush the it out before I replace the rack. I think that while I have the car on jackstands I'll disconnect the return hose at the reservoir and just pour a lot of ATF fluid through the reservoir, with the engine running, and let it all drain out the return hose. Any suggestions? Comments? Wisdom gained through hard experience?
