Power Steering System







The power steering system is a rack and pinion design, with an engine-driven pump providing the steering assistance. The system features variable steering assistance with vehicle speed, a variable ratio steering rack, and a hydraulic control valve which has a torsion bar arrangement giving improved center feel to the steering.

Absolute cleanliness must be observed when replenishing the fluid or dismantling any part of the system. If any major component is renewed a new fluid reservoir must be fitted. New fluid from a sealed container must be used.
