HP - high pressure
B-steering box

not a good idear to just start it up, you will cause damage to the pump.
Fill up the resivour lif the front wheels of the deck, and turn from lock to lock with the engine off, about 16 times, keep the resivour toped up while doing this, then star the engine and repeat procedure, then lower the car and your done with no problems.
