Lincoln campaign no 128. Job 1 to Jul. 26, 1974. Possibility a powersteering pressure reapply valve in the hydraulic skid control actuatorinstalled on certain vehicles may malfunction, causing power steering pumpfluid to become trapped within the actuator support chamber. The trapped fluidcan cause the actuator casting to fracture. Should this occur, hydraulic fluidwould be lost with consequent loss of power assist for both steering andbraking. (correct by inspecting and installing redesigned valve wherenecessary).
