TR8 Power Steering Pump


Recommended Posts

Hi Guys

 

Sorry to post this on this forum too, but I'm really struggling.

 

The only thing stopping me getting the car on the road is the bloomin' power steering pump.

 

The car is a TR7 V8 with a genuine TR8 power steering pump, with the inbuilt reservoir, mated to a South Yorkshire Triumph rack.

 

It used to leak when the car was on the road seven years ago, so last year I rebuilt it with a seal kit from Rimmers.

 

Put it on the car a week ago and it just wouldn't bleed. In fact, air and fluid came bubbling back under the lid! With the wheels of the ground, the steering is light and free, so that negates any other part of the steering being tight.

 

Can anyone help? I'm desperate to get the car on the road.

 

Many thanks in advance!
