GU power steering failure

Post by Fathillbilly »

any of you guys got any ideas why my power steering would allow me to turn right but not left.

turning left is heavy as while turning right is normal????

any help would be great, thanks

Bias in the box needs rebuilding?
Pump is fawked? (my guess at the moment with the limited supplied info)
Lots of foreign particles (metal files) in your system caused a failure of box and pump?

Sounds expensive dude.

after talking to a few other guys, other lists and power steering people, i found the problem, water on the belt. but still strange as it only happened when turning left.

the tension in the belt was good but i tightened up more i just hope a bearing doesn't pack it in now.
