Powersteering bubble over
so, i replaced one of the rubber hoses from the steering rack to the pipe that goes to the return side, and now when i filled it up it bubbles out and foams up all over the place!! once it settles down and i cycle the wheel lock to lock it seems to be fine, then once i turn the engine off the damn resevour pukes all the fluid back out the fill hole!! WTF? ths thing is drivin me nuts!
any ideas?

Re: Powersteering bubble over
Had the same issue when I first got my 96 SVX. Replace the O-ring under the power steering reservoir as it is leaking and sucking air. Empty tank, remove bolts on tank. O-ring is on nipple on bottom of tank. It is probably hard as a rock and/or cracked.
I went to Ace Hardware and matched it up. Cost $.19. Had same issue with AC compressor. Fixed two major problems for less than a buck. Doc Last edited by BDSDC; 11-09-2009 at 08:37 AM. Reason: typo |
