What kind of power steering do I have?

dammit! I have not had to look at my FSM for any of these problems that are not covered well! OK, maybe that's a good thing...

but still, I guess I ought to have the '94 FSM eventually.


(and Gabe, that strip is funny stuff.)

If you want the '97 FSM, that can be arranged. Some things are obviously different, but much of it is the same.

Someone pointed out to me recently that I occasionally present my opinion as if it were fact.

I thought it would be a good idea to remind folks that, yes, this is the internet.

If I got another FSM I would want a '94. The pic of the '97 PS is very close but not exactly what I have, the pressure feed tube is on the side of mine and not the top as they show in the 97' FSM. It served the purpose to get my by. I am getting ready to go out and dive into it and put her back together.

Sweet!

Well I got her back together and there are no leaks. All the old o-ring I replaced were rock hard and broke when I went to remove them. It was time to get them out.

The set up was different to me because the drive gear was driven by a gear that is driven indirectly by the crank. I am sure there is a lubricant for the gear drive but it was not clear to me what the lube was. I would think it is oil because I did not see any way for the PS fluid to get in there.

I am wondering about this because I had an oil leak in addition to the PS leak and now I have no puddles. I would clean up the puddles, leave it in the garage over night and the next day without driving I had another puddle and now it is gone. I need to wait and see if my oil continues to disappear.
