   Hi everyone,
   
   Is there anyway you can tell if the pas works when the car is up on axle stands? I'm fault finding at the moment and don't fancy dropping it down everytime.
   
   Cheers!

   Yeah but when it's up it's hasn't got resistance from the ground?

   You don't need resistance from the ground, it will either work or it won't. It's only a basic hydraulic system.
