Anyone know whats in power steering reservior?

[snowwolf]

I am making a stainless reservior, but unsure how its laid out inside, I would expect it has baffles inside? you have an inlet and outlet, if anyone has an old one, cut the top off and send me a pic

Don't know but i've started making an ally one.

Well I was going to say Power steering fluid until I read further.

I would have thought it has some sort of baffling inside as there is quite a lot of oil movement going on when you turn the steering wheel and you will need to seperate whats going on.

if you need any alluminium plate 1/8 inch thick, just let me know and will send you some.

I enjoy making things and the materials all come free and get paid while making them

Which is the correct answer. Nothing but fluid.

Definitly not just fluid in the reservior, take a look under the filler cap and have a jab around with a stick down the 8mm hole thats under the cap, def not just fluid

Now that you are at fabricating bits,- how about making a dozen superchargers and the rest?

Started making this at Xmas. Water bottle in pic is a cardboard mockup

I imagine it's gonna look really really cool, if you replace some of those nasty plastic bits.

Looking very nice ferb, nice to see some home made stuff, where did you get the filler cap/neck from? does it have a breather in the top? I am unsure how much air flow is needed?
