Power steering shudder

[MN_CalSpec]

My power steering on my 68 all of a sudden started to shudder (vibrates the steering wheel real bad) even if I turn it just a bit, it does this driving or at a stand still. I rebuilt the control valve about 4 years ago and the whole power steering hase been working great with no leaks since, until the other day.
Any idea's on what's up.

Proabably got air in your line

Sounds like air in system. To bleed air turn the wheel all the way one way - as far as it will go and then back the other - at a stand still. Do this a few times - if it's air that will take car of it. Happen to me one night thought I was a major problem - did this and has been fine (knock on wood).

Yep, it was just air.
I had to turn wheel about 10 times each way.

Glad to hear that's all it was
