Yesterday, I removed the hydraulic pump from my LNC2 to be sent for overhaul by Oildyne.  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.
