Hey guys i had a little leak on my power steering gear box. We replaced the required gaskets and stop the leak but now when we start the car the steering shoots all the way to the right.
1972 Plymouth Scamp. Any help would be appreciated.

You need to center the control valve. Loosen the two bolts slightly and tap it forward or backward until the valve is centered and doesn't turn the wheel on startup. Raise the front end off the ground and wheels hanging to do this adjustment. If it's shooting to the right, you need to move the control valve housing up toward the firewall I believe. It's not a big adjustment range. Just a slight move of the valve can have a dramatic change.
