My recently purchased 1966 ford 3000 has power steering
oil coming out below the steering wheel.
The previous owner has tried to fix, so, I
do not know what was done or if it, was done right.
I replaced
the speedy sleeve and seal. with the spring pointing
down towards he frame of tractor. I checked the
tubing going to the cylinders. I have the check
valve at 6 o'clock position as you sit on the tractor seat. Seems like the steering is fighting
itself, oil is returning to reservoir. The distri-
bution valve identification line is facing down.
I am using universal hydraulic oil, instead of
p/s fluid. When I lift front end with loader, steering linkage turns, with no binding.
Please help with any thoughts and ideas. Should
I use pure p/s fluid, install another speedy sleeve, are lines plugged in p/s cylinders, maybe??? I have the Ford repair manual.
Thank You, in advance.
