[boostedve]

i have a 1991 non i/c and the power steering is not workin like it should..
it only works after its warm and then it still doesnt work like it should. once i get to were im going and shut the truck off it pushs the fluid out the cap.. i have put synthetic fluid in it and also used lucas power steering fluid in it. no help..

brian i know we talked about this and i went to the junk yard today got a power steering / vacum pump off a 2nd gen. has any one tried to put one of these on there 1st gen.. they are a lil diff.

I put a vane (91.5+) vacuum pump on my nonIC 91. I had to trim the lower 3" or so off the bottom of the throttle bracket, and get a vacuum pump supply hose made up (CaseIH dealer, $30 or so). Othe rthan that, it was a near direct fit.

IS your fluid foamy or have any other contamination in it?

You may try looking at the flow control valve. It located in the pump behind the high pressure hose fitting. There's a good explination of how it works on WestTexasoffroads web site in the tech section.
