Mercury Lynx Power Steering Pump
Mercury Lynx Power Steering Pump makes the steering wheel turn easy and accurate by converting the engine torque into hydraulic pressure that pushes a piston in the steering gear. The spin pushes it through a high pressure hose to the rack and pinion control valve. The system then returns it through a low pressure line. In most Lynx models, the pump and reservoir take the form of a single cast unit. However, some Mercury editions separate the tank to maximize under hood space. Both layouts feed the same hydraulics. When the wheel is in the center, the pump exerts equal pressure on each side of the cylinder. In the early eighties, Lynx utilized a straightforward V belt-driven Power Steering Pump. Later versions were equipped with a serpentine belt, and electronically tuned versions featured a flow control valve that altered the assist as per vehicle speed. If the Mercury Power Steering Pump is leaking, whining, or causing increasing steering effort, it is failing and may require replacement which can be confirmed via pressure testing against factory specifications. If your Power Steering Pump is noisy, it will likely quiet down when air is bled from the circuit. Ensuring that the fluids are topped, the belts are tight, and the hoses secure will help every Mercury Lynx retain responsive steering and extend the Power Steering Pump's lifespan.
