A method to fill hydraulic oil in hydraulic steering systems for boats. The method uses a closed system to reduce mess and waste, but does not require power and can be performed by a single operator. A bleed lock is secured to a ram's bleeders and hydraulic oil fed to a helm. By rotating a boat's steering wheel and moving the motor, air will flow out of the system into the bottle and hydraulic oil will flow into the system.
