STEERING

4. Check system over for external leakage.

Leakage is usually indicated by an oilwetted

area, oil dripping or oily dirt accumulation. Since

air and fan draft have probably spread leaking

oil, clean the entire system off thoroughly, then

operate and watch for leakage. Usual points for

leaks are around fittings or along hoses which

have burst or split under stress and strain.

Leakage can cause the same troubles as a low

oil supply in the reservoir and a "lump" or hard

spot in steering. Air occasionally causes shimmy

too.

D. The third step is to check pump pressure.
