Bit of Steering Play
« on: September 29, 2022, 14:10:41 »
After reinstalling my engine and reconnecting the PS, I have noticed that the steering is having a bit of play.  This surprises me because I don't recall any play before, except when I first bought the car 10 years ago.  I replaced the teflon'ish sleeves in the steering coupling at that time and corrected any the steering play.  So this is befuddling to me.  I've read where people bleed their PS units but I've never done this, and I see where some people don't think this is necessary.

Any thoughts?  Could the coupling sleeves already be worn.  (Can't imagine that.)

Thanks,
Harry
