POWER STEERING Burping???? - 09/14/12 02:09 AM
Since getting my car back together I have a weird problem with my Power Steering.
It is burping itself out of the weep hole in the cap.
Is this a sign of a bigger problem?
Is it air that will work itself out?
I've driven it 10+ miles already so I don't believe it's air.
I had the steering box rebuilt by Steer and Gear and all new hoses and a complete flush out.
The one thing that is bothering me though is a previous butcher, I mean owner had a tiny screw in the hole of the cap so maybe this was an existing problem with this pump.
Any thoughts on this??? Oh it's the Saginaw Unit in a 70 GTX without cooler. Metal cap with built in dipstick style.
Thanks Ron
