pulls to left
my 81 has had the front end rebuilt and new alighnment and car pulls slightly to the left. it did this before rebuild. been reading that there is an adjustment in the power steering proportioning valve that could cause this. how can i check this and how hard to adjust?? thanks, namvet

If you just had an alignment done and your car still pulls to the left, you need to check your tires for inflation pressure and brakes to make sure a caliper isn't dragging. A left front brake flex line failing will cause your symptoms by not sufficiently releasing pressure.

An unbalanced power steering control valve will cause a pull. Wilcox has instructions on centering the valve.
