Power Steering Problem on 861

My power steering has quit working. When I pull the cover of the fluid tank and lift up on the spring that holds the filter it pushes out a stream of fluid from the middle of the filter about the size of my thumb. I'm thinking it must still be pumping by seeing the stream but it isn't reaching the cylinders if that is the case. What could be some possible problems? The filter looks clean but hasn't been changed in a while. I also hear a faint rattle in the pump when it is turning. Thanks. Bill

You can always crack lines at the cyl and see if you have oil pressure there.

Also.. just because you have soem volume from the pump.. you may not have that volume under pressure, if the pump is worn.

However.. as the other poster said.. check the relief first.. may be stuck open.

on the side if the pump,there is a large not.under the nut is a pressure by pass.it may be stuck open,which would not let the pump make pressure
