I definitely removed the return line and put it into a 2 L Coke bottle. A 4 L milk jug would be even better. Make sure that the jug is secure because the fluid comes out of the pump extremely fast. Then I stuck the return line back on the jug circulated it for a while while turning the wheel back-and-forth to lock to lock. Then I disconnected it again and flushed it all out with clean ATF and then filled with the 50-50 ATF Lucas has a final field.
I’ve done this on two of my cars now and both times it worked. Be really careful with the return line into the jug. The first time I did it it came out of the jug and shot ATF and acetone all over my garage.

If you have the morning sickness, usually that means the inside is toast.
Especially in an earlier C4.
I used turnone for mine, i also had the 2.0 ratio rack that i wished to keep.
It has been a few years with my turnone rack and i still could not be happier with my decision.
Steering still feels as tight as the day i installed it.
