Default '93 MX3, 1.8L V6, power steering and tools

Aloha, once again, from the east end of Maui! Thank you! to Hixx and BabyHuey for the info that helped me replace the master and slave clutch cylinders on my MX3.

My next problem is my power steering. A) it leaks, B) when I do long, steady and sharp right turns, it feels as though there is a half-full tank of water under the hood, that is sloshing back and forth as I turn. Sometimes if pulls with me, sometimes it pushes against me. The Chilton Guide uses the word "surges", which sounds correct, except they say to check the flow control valve and to see the "pressure test", but never refer to these things anywhere else in the manual.

Anyone know where I can find information on checking, repairing, and/or replacing this valve?

Also, does anyone know where I can find an OBD1 compliant code reader/scanner that will work with my MX3?

Thanks again,

Ray
