    Hello,

    On the side of the pump (don't have the car here, but pass side if I remeber correctly)

    There is a small rubber plug on the side, it's a tight fit and sits up just a little. Remove this plug and add fluid. It's hard to get to and I use a turkey baster, there is a tool you can make for servicing/bleeding the pump. Do a search in the Ragtop forum, I know there have been a few posts on it in the past.

    Whats your name? We're a freindly group here, a lot of us use our first names so we know who we're talking to.

    If you have a shop or body manual there are instruction and pictures on how to fill the hydraulic pump. Hydro-E-lectric in fla, has a filler kit for this . And many good tips and parts for convt's, WWW.hydroe.com.
