hydraulic steering question

I am preparing to bleed a sea star hydraulic steering system. Can anyone direct me to a specific thread (on this site) for instructions? Thanks for any and all help.
 
My rigger uses an electric pump to pump the hyd. fluid through the system. You can actually hear the air and air bubbles coming out of the pump while it's on!! Makes for tight steering!! My problem is using a Mercury Ram with the Sea Star helm. There's too much play in the Merc Ram and the "wings" flex too much. (makes for quite an exciting chine walk over 70 mph) The Sea Star "Allison" ram has much shorter wings and there's no slack in the ram at all......for a mere price of about $650.oo!!
