LOL, way to check your PS fluid properly

Glad it was something simple and you didn't waste your money.

thinking this is the case. filled up the fluid at my shop, then 4 days later has the same problem. had to refill it again today. gonna have my guys look at it again this friday. hopefully permanently solve the problem
