Hey guys
Been daily driving an 89 GT vert for last two months. I bought it off the second owner, only 97k miles and very detailed and extensive service records.
The car sometimes drives straight, sometimes pulls left, sometimes right. Wanders around the lane and wheel jerks when I hit bumps. On the highway it's pretty straight but takes some concentration to keep in your lane.
So, I lifted the car up, and the tie rods and ball joints seem tight. The wheels have no perceptible play left/right or top/bottom. Tires are wearing evenly. Looked around the rack and it's covered in grime and grease, so sprayed with degreaser, ran the motor turning the wheel left and right and couldn't see any leaks.
Power steering fluid is grey/black and disgusting looking but reservoir is full.
What next?? Not sure where to go from here... is this steering just this sloppy?
Thanks guys
