I did some researching, but failed to find what im looking for. The rear shock braided line on my 350x got caught in my chain and ripped a hole in it. I was able to get a new line and purchase new atf fluid. The problem is, the manual does not state where or how you fill the resevoir, shock and line back to its correct levels. I see the nitrogen valve on the resevoir, but fail to see where to fill it with fluid. How do you bleed the system? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

I would ask sblt500r. He seems to be the go-to guy on the shocks

Is that the OEM manual? 86? I'm not sure about the 85 manual as it's different than the 86, but I thought it had a very good chapter on it. It was very specific as to filling each item by itself until no bubbles were left etc etc.... The 85/86 manual has a red cover if you don't have it. The one DAMMIT offers has the stuff in it for you.....

yea i took a look at Dammit's manual. Thats really cool that he has that available. Anyway, i brought it into a shop to have it done because the coil just had too much pressure on the two upper threaded nuts on top. They charged me $150 to have it done when they quoted me at $50. Lets just say i had a word with their manager...I told him to go take a walk...your not getting my money LOL. :Bounce
