Much as i love them....
« on: 13 December 2010, 21:36:42 »
...I'll never understand cars or women. For the last couple of cold weeks the 1966 Cortina has been cossetted in the workshop while the Beastie has struggled valiantly on with no power steering. Yesterday the 'tina took me to a Rotherham  meet, all around Sheffield, back to Rotherham for tea & biccies & home to Immingham. Took her to work & back today. Decided to put the Beastie in the workshop & go to work in the 'tina tomorrow. Struggled to get the Beastie in the workshop & guess what? Once in the mardy cow decided her steering works fine & went from lock to lock stood still with one finger on the wheel no noises.
    I love you but make your mind up you silly tart, i'm not psychic FFS!!!!! ::)

Omega PS pumps are pretty reliable, the number you have had fitted tells me its not the power steering pump.

So it could be a loos fuse or the little ecu thing, I have a spare if you want to try it (can post it)

  You Sir are in possession of a very dry sense of humour. Sadly you live more than "8" miles away & as that is my postge limit i'm unable to send you any currency & i don't have the relevant spices to cook you a curry & could'nt garauntee how long it will keep for, 8 hours or 8 days.
    I'm very busy at the moment!!!! Guy. ::)

Could someone in the know please tell me where this steering sensor is in Janet & John laymans terms, ie jack front of car up & look here where this sensor is & can it be taken off, cleaned, dried wd40'd & put back?
    Gonna have a look on Sunday. Cheers, Guy. :y
