Hello, I have just pulled the steering wheel assembly out of my 1466 for the second time in about 10 engine hours. I can see that once again the big sleeve like rubber seal has failed on the steering gear "motor". The seal is about 3 inches in diameter and is about 4" tall. This time I can see it has been pushed up and out of the metal collar it fits under, I suppose by hydraulic pressure. I just replaced this seal about 10 hrs ago. That one had become stiff and unpliable. That one was only about 4 years and 40 engine hours old. Anyone know what might be making these fail? Could the steering mechanism be worn? Perhaps a relief valve is not opening somewhere. Thanks for any thoughts you might have. YC
