I'm having problems after I hit the motor putting extreme pressure on. I lost my steering.
Things done i have bleedit to death many times.
I have removed it an totally disassembled it twice, every thing was oily and spotless clean, removed the 4 springs and ball bearing twice. Secondtime I pulled the side caps.

Today I'm test the pump the only way I know. I have installed a 3 way valve with a gauge and plug. When I turn it I can feel each internal cylinder clicking as it turns, im getting to 75 psi per click. It pegs my gauge at 300 pluse. Each way.
Is the pump bad?
