    The steering wheel on this 74 Mav. is turned 90deg. . Is there an alignment setting/inspection I can do myself?? Or should I take it for an alignment?? It has a very small p/steering leak. The p/s pump seems ok. no noise when turning.

    If it steers full left and right then the steering wheel need re-clocked. Just remove the steering wheel from the shaft and move it 90* and put it back on. If you can't turn full left or right then the tie rods need adjusted.
