Where can i get a control valve that wont leak?, when i got the car it had just had a new/ rebiult one put on, probally rebiult, it is leaking, again, anyone ever get one that dont leak?I just dont want to get another one that will leak.
 
Buy new and not rebuilt. My .02 on these P/S items. I put new valve and cylinder in. The pump was "remanufactured" Bought mine from Ecklers and when you bought new, they gave a good deal refund when you returned your old parts. Good luck, I did all my parts at once cause I got sick and tired of the leaks on the driveway and always having to check to see if I had enought fluid in the pump.
 
Another important thing is don't overgrease, Overgreasing destroys the valve. There is a big warning on new valves not to grease. One pump of the gun is all after a few years. Don't pump until grease comes out somewhere.
Infact don't grease at all.
 
Ok ty, i think it will be a new one, cant stand leaks, just fixed the rear main seal to, now all i got is the control valve.
 
Mine from ZIP works fine...
