I have a 230 that has a small cyclinder on each side to steer with. I recently changed fluid, filled with hyd 46 fluid. Now no steering at all. Do I need to bleed> If so, where> I cracked a hose at small steer cylinders and it squirts a little fluid here and there, not a stream. What am i doing wrong?

fill it up the. Steer it then fill it some more there is filter in the can
Also if they blow up it is hard to fill while running if it is really dirty could cause slow steering
