The hydraulic fluid I drained from the reservoir was cloudy and contained what I assume to be fine aluminum silt. The system is obviously badly contaminated. While the pump is away, I would like to purge and clean the hydraulic lines. Has anyone in Lancair Land evolved an efficient means of doing so? I would appreciate hearing from you.
