Power Steering
We have a 90 Barth Regal with a ford 460. We need to find the reservoir for the power steering pump. Anyone know where to get parts for this? Thanks!

Does it look like this?



This is a picture from Ron and Maggies 1990 Ford Regal and I added the text to help you locate the items.

On my 1991 Ford 460 Powered Commercial Barth the "Power Steering Reservoir" looks like the "Hydro-Boost and Transmission Parking Brake Booster" too. They are both the same type of reservoir.

Also, on mine, the "Hydro-Boost and Transmission Parking Brake Booster" is sandwiched between the "Engine Overflow Coolant Tank" and the "Windshields Washer Fluid Tank"

Can you take a picture of the radiator area and post it here for comment?

I'm sorry Bill! I ment they cover that you have to take off and put back on when you change the actual power steering pump. I've heard it being called a reservoir also. I forgot about the fill area being a reservoir. The pic looks similar to mine things are moved a little but it sure looks like it anyway.

No this is not the same mine is rounded. Has no intake valve on the top. I have a picture I tried to send but it won't go through. I could send it to your email if you give me that address. We tried to use that pump with cover but the intake valve on top is in the way of our idaler pulley.

I know I am hi-jacking this , but could not figure how to repost...
Regarding the picture Bill NY posted, which is now my Ford 460, I thought I would take the opportunity to ask if the Transmission cooler shown is properly sized or if I should think about upgrading to a large size. Barth is a 28'
Trans temp currently runs around 195.

Thanks and sorry for the hijack....
