Default Power steering vacuum

I've replaced power steering rack and pump on my 850R. Since that I have always vacuum in the reservoir after run (cap is hard to open). How is that possible? There is no noticeable leak in the system.

Hi Peter,

I believe the cap has a tiny vent so there should be no possibility of either pressure or vacuum. Check the cap vent and clean if possible - otherwise, obtain another cap.

John
