Default Power Assist Steering

Howdy all, I have a Q on how to bleed power steering on a 1969 Mach 1. I replaced the cyl and control unit on the drag links as well as the tie rods, and the steering wheel turns with one finger to the left, but 2 hands to turn the right. It is hard to turn to the right. I tried cracking the lins on both the control unit and the power cyl. But I dont get any air out of them.

Any Ideas
Thanks Larry

There is a cap on the end of your control valve ,it is atached to your pitman arm. Remove the cap ,you will find a nut backed up with a spring, give it a turn half to one full turns only and try your steering wheel. Be sure and put the cap on before starting the motor,it will leak fluid if not!!
Chucksteak play with this nut until you get results.
