I've been busy fixing 'things' and tying up loose ends on my M. And there are a lot of them. One of the major ones is the char-lynn power steering unit. I'm finally getting round tu-it. Yea, another trip into the unknown. I guess that says it all, because I don't know squat about power steering units. The prior owner removed the belt from the pump, and one of the feed hoses. Here's what I have at the torque motor.
As you can see, there is a valve stem from a tubeless tire rim screwed in at the port end. What's up with that??!! The bottom hose goes back to the reseviour. So I assume the missing top hose goes to the pump, Right?
Now you can see what I have at the pump end. A drain cock!! Once again, what's up with that!!??
I'd like to get it hooked up and running again, just to see if it works, and also see if there are any leaks.
So what's with those weird fitting on those port ends? Apparently the prior owner disabled the unit for reasons unknown, and I'd like to find out why.
