G'day people,
I'm having trouble searching for a power steering reservoir with cap for my v8 nf fairlane ghia 1995. They are available in all other models and years except mine. Does anyone have a clue on where I might find one? I have tried looking everywhere on the line and wreckers as well, Driving me nuts. The lugs on the cap somehow broke off and now it leaks fluid. Cheers, Drew. |

Yes it does. It was fine until I picked the car up from the auto electricians, took me a couple of days to realise when the car wouldn't kick over and power steering fluid leaked from the cap down the reservoir.
Left the car to sit for about a week before I tried again and it started just fine. |

Nah it was 3 or 4 weeks later when it happened. I was driving the 6 cylinder, I have 6 and 8 cylinder 1995 fairlane nf ghia. The v8 wouldn't start when I was coming home from the mall, got it towed to the sparky and he put a new starter motor in it. Drove it home then was driving the 6 for a few weeks. Moved the 8 out of the garage, the driveway is on the lean, left it overnight and tried moving it the next day and it wouldn't kick over. When I did get it going The revs where jumping all over the place and it wouldn't hold idle, kept dying. Had a look under the bonnet and saw the cap was raised and fluid everywhere.
Left it for about a week and it kicked over fine. Fluid must have dried up. Been driving it with no probs, still paranoid about the cap and fluid leaking. Where abouts are you? I can pay for postage aswell. |
