Checking Power Steering Fluid and Lines
+Check ¯uid level with engine off.
+Check ¯uid level with dipstick on reservoir cap. Use ``HOT''
range at ¯uid temperatures of 50 to 80ÉC (122 to 176ÉF). Use
``COLD'' range at ¯uid temperatures of 0 to 30ÉC (32 to 86ÉF).
CAUTION:
+Do not over®ll.
+Recommended ¯uid is Automatic Transmission Fluid type
``DEXRON
TMIII'' or equivalent.
+Check lines for improper attachment, leaks, cracks, damage,
loose connections, cha®ng or deterioration.
+Check rack boots for accumulation of power steering ¯uid.
Checking Steering Damper
Check steering damper for damage and oil leakage.
Checking Steering Gear Box and Linkage
STEERING GEAR
+Check gear housing and boots for looseness, damage or
grease leakage.
+Check connection with steering column for looseness.
STEERING LINKAGE
+Check ball joint, dust cover and other component parts for
looseness, wear, damage or grease leakage.
