i cracked the bottom side of the power steering plastic reservoir,,so it was leaking pretty bad and it emptied it was a bad crack so i got some sealant, cleaned the bottom and sealed it, and the seal looks pretty solid.
so now, i am gonna put the oil back in. do i need to do anything else?

just get a new one. you shouldve used plastic weld to seal the crack tho. over time it will start leaking again.

so can i get the plastic part, and replace it with the cracked part,,,then pour the oil in? do i need to do other thing? like one of my friend was telling me,,as all the oil leaked out. there might be air bubble inside, and it might hurt my power steering system. when i pour the oil in.

replace it with a new one, fill the reservoir up to max, then drive around til the car warms up and go to an empty parking lot and do 5-10 full turns in each direction (til the wheel locks). that will get rid of air and also cycle the fluid. when you get home, park on flat ground and refill the fluid to the max line once the car cools down. you will prolly need to refill it a second time.
