Whats up guys. I got a 04 Tahoe with the hydroboost I did a power steering fluid flush a while back an it's been bugging me about the fluid reservoir. If you have the hydroboost and look inside your power steering fluid container there is a return line going from hydroboost to the power steering tank. You can see the opening for the line. Does anyone know if the fluid is supposed to be over that hole where u cant see it or is the fill level supposed to be right under it where you can see the hole. if anyone knows what I'm talking about. Thanks.

your p/s cap is the dipstick for properly checking p/s fluid level with engine off

Well yea that's obvious. Not to be a smart ass But with fresh fluid its hard to see on a black dipstick. An dont take but a splash to submerge the return line hole an it still looks like it's in the correct area on the stick. And when u remove fluid to see the return line hole it still looks about the correct area also
So that's why I wanted to kno if anyone knew if its suppose to be under or over the hole

I believe its suppose to be under the line where the line is not submerged but I'm not 100
