302 mf
I bought a 302 Massey Ferguson yesterday. It has a problem with the hydraulic steering servo. I put fluid in the pump and it leaks underneath the steering wheel. It doesn't turn either. Anyone know of the cause or part numbers for a rebuild kit or new orbital valve?
thanks

I just bought a MF 20C it had the same problem. My son and I got the front tires off the ground, took the plug out of the steering pump and filled with ATF fluid. Then turned the steering wheel back and forth(must hold at each stop at the end of turn) this will eject the air from the steerng system. MUST HAVE THE REFILL PLUG LOOSE AND KEEP ADDING ATF FLUID UNTIL ONLY FLUID IS COMING OUT:thumbsup: Let me know if this helps. I still have the leak on the steering control valve, think an o-ring or seal on orbital shaft is the problem there.:confused2:
