How do you know if the rack and pinion is bad on a 1992 Ford Tempo?
How does my car act when I was the lead if the rack is out? What happens when it went wrong? Would I even be able to drive it?
First sign is the liquid steering will be a dirty gray color and smell a little burnt. The gray matter is decaying joints in the rack and pinion. Some cars develop what I call the morning sickness, when the bin is cold in the morning, it starts well in one direction and be extremely rigid to turn the other way. Once the liquid is heated steering returns to normal. Sometimes the fluid will blow into them, this is caused by a leak at the shaft seal. If you pull the bellows and the liquid comes out, you have a bad rack. Accordion bellows are those in search of things. If you have a complete failure, you'll be stuck where ever it happens. Good Luck
