I adjusted the steering gear and it didn"t do that any more. Steers both ways easy one-handed behind my back now.

The FO-4 has a routing to go through that checks the wormshaft end play and bearings but you can adjust the sector shaft this way. Set the wheels straight ahead, drop the drag links off the steering gear arms, loosen both adjusting screw locknuts, and back out the right side adjusting screw several turns. Then, turn the left side screw CW until there is no no end play in the sector shaft the right steering arm is hooked to. Hold the adjusting screw and tighten the lock nut. Turn the right side adjusting screw until there is no end play in the left side shaft. Hold the adjusting screw and tighten the lock nut, put on the drag links, and you"re good to go.

I have lube the box since then. I guess you"re suppose to do that before you adjust the gear.

All this is in the FO-4 w/pics.
