I'm just back home. After coming back from work I had to tow a neighbor's Renault to the nearest Renault Dealer as it did not start.
47 old and it's the second time I use a tow bar.
Was fun.
The 'Hoe impressed the neighbor.
I understand.

Mine is set up with cb&d brackets . 100% bolt on , not lock nut thank god. This is like the 5th time I’ve had them apart . In fact I took them apart and removed the switchback halos just yesterday . View attachment 258852

Ah. I have those brackets on my 02 retrofits. Nice.

Plugs and wires and attempted to quiet the power steering with a turkey baster and bleeding it. Still groans some. #8 plug was a PITA, finally figured out the best way was just to lay on top of the engine, then it was easy. Old plugs didn’t look terrible, maybe somebody did them in the 145k before I had it...

Why not do the method where you disconnect the return hose, run it into a bucket and flush it completely? You can replace 100% of the fluid that way.

Cause I only had 1/2 bottle of fluid on hand.

Rocket man’s comments made me run 3 quarts thru, pumping it all out. Somewhat better. Probably just gonna have to replace the pump one day. It’s been a little groan noise when turning hard left in parking lots for years.

I had my pump replaced and the restored pressure helped out my hydroboost brake performance a bit. The braking improvement was noticeable, and no more pump whine.

Excellent info. I hadn’t even considered this.. mine’s been whining just a little ever since I’ve owned it. It’s been on my list, but I think that comment bumped it up a little...

My mechanic tried some PS magic fluid to see if that would quiet it down, but it didn't do much so I opted for the full pump change. I thought it important with the brakes being integrated, and I was preparing a camping trip and towing a camper a few months later.
