Just curiously, I would think the resivour for the power steering would have to be the highest point in the PAS system for bleeding/ airlock prevention, would I be correct? Or just higher than the pump itself?

If you relocated it lower you could put some sort of t-piece with a screw-in plug in one of the lines and just have that up high I'd have thought?
Then to bleed it you'd just open the plug.

I wasn't sure wether it needed a high spot at all, because as far as I can tell it's a fully positive system, where all the flow returns to the resivour, so in my mind the only natural (not pressurised) flow would be from res, to pump. So that's an obvious fall required spot, but then again air builds at any high point no matter what, correct?

I'm pretty sure that once it is bled that it doesn't need to be done unless something is introducing air into the system (leak etc)
