Re: PS Pump Pressure Fix

[beth <dickens@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

 Ollie    When we put the v6 into 70 dart we tried the washers on the 
pressure relief valve.   It made little to no difference in overall 
driveability.  We added sway bars rebuilt complete front suspension. 
Finally gave up and went to stage 2  box from steer&gear ,work's much better 
and is as good as it gets.

 It still drives best with 2 hands on the wheel but at 34 mpg we can live 
with small things
