Sorry, banana breath, but there's no good reason for a new hydraulic

1 - Why does SeaStar dealers supply an extra quart of fluid with every
steering system?
2 - If it's a closed system, why does it lose 1/2 ounce or so a year?
3 - In a closed system, once the engine is in position, it should stay
there but it don't.
It has air in the system.
No air - purged and can't cram another millinanomicro drip into the

Hmmmm?
It has air in the system. "Purged" only means that the air that *can* bleed
out due to the limited exercising of the helm (several lock to lock
manipulations) after filling has been released. There's still air in the
system.
