Well I finally got out to the garage and got the engine bolted down, hooked up most wires and am getting close to firing it up. Because I had to remove the power steering pump for the engine swap I will have to replace the fluid. Does the Daewoo have any special requirements? I heard I had to "bleed" the power steering pump. How do you do this?

How about radiator fluid? I think it has green in it. Anything special? Trans fluid?

What oil filter should I look for? Walmart does not list one. Is there one that will substitute?

Car is a '01 Leganza

Coolant - regular mixture of 'standard' coolant
Gearbox: (auto) Dexron III
Manual: SAE 80W (SAE 75W in cold climates)
Power steering: Dexron III

Hey New,

Yes, "green" coolant. Prestone is good

To bleed ?
1.. turn wheels all the way to the left.
2..add pwr steering fluid to "MIN" mark.
3..start engine run at fast idle, recheck fluid level.
4..turn the wheels from side to side w/out reaching the stop at either end, keep fluid level at "min" mark. This will bleed the system.
5..return the wheels to center.
6..run engine another three minutes.
7..road test. Should be back to normal.
8..do number 3 again, only this time bring the fluid level up to the "MAX" mark. Make sure your up to normal operating temp.

"NAPA" should have an oil filter for your woo. Or get the number and brand off your old engines filter and do a google "cross referance"

I dont recomend Fram oil filters.
