I replaced the PS pump with an older but known good one, bled the whole system - I think I did it properly (at least 30 wheel turns, pedal down etc., no air, no bubbles, no foam. When I came back from the trail I thought to myself no big deal, the pump is worn, it has some miles. I had to rev the engine to build the pressure in the system. In about 20 yards or so I needed to make a sharp turn while holding the brakesĪnd suddenly I lost my steering and brakes. I went wheeling, got stuck a bit, with the wheels turned fully to the left I needed to hit the gas to dig out. Remove every hose and check the connections to make sure they are correct. The thing to take away is flow is everything in a PS system. This story illustrates that you can't assume that a butcher mechanic hasn't been working on your truck. I received an email from a Hummer owner in Slovakia, Europe in 7/2016.
