I noticed that over the winter that steering fluid had leaked from somewhere near my steering wheel and dripped down on to the helm floor. I searched everywhere for the leak and think that I finally found it from directly behind the steering wheel. I contacted teleflex and they needed a picture or two of the steering housing to identify the pump and provide me with the correct number for the seal kit they offer.
I sent them a few pictures and they immediately responded with the "correct" seal kit. Part number. I immediately ordered it and had it shipped in. Yesterday I removed the steering wheel and housing only to find that the drawing on the seal kit instruction do not resemble my actual set up. Needless to say I was very disappointed that this project has to remain unfinished until I can find the correct seal kit and instructions.
I can not find any part number anywhere on the helm pump or steering pieces . So I am going to post some pictures that I took that hopefully one of you guys have seen or owned before. Any help identifying this thing would be greatly appreciated also any experience with the install and purging would also be great.
Thanks in advance
