I recently upgraded all my lines based on the thread linked below. I have both steering fittings on the rack that are -6. They route by the frame rail. I have the high pressure one going to the pump. Then the other one is going to the factory cooling loop and to the bottom port of the reservoir that is also -6. Then I have the top port of the reservoir going to the pump. It is also -6. I know the factory upper port is roughly -10 but I seen many reports of -6 working. Better yet I havnt seen any data saying that -6 wont work. My fluid is extremly hot. I cant even open the cap it is so hot. This is all at idle and turning in my driveway. The fluid is brand new valvoline atf. What would cause this issue and how to fix it? Could it be the size of the line that is the issue? Maybe I should switch the ports on the reservoir?
