While doing pre-season routine maintenance on my =E2=80=9871 B/GT =
recently, my mechanic & I decided it would be wise to make sure the =
steering rack had plenty of oil.  The factory service manual has =
instructions and a diagram for filling via a nipple on the housing =
=E2=80=93 but we can=E2=80=99t find any such fitting (or even a plug), =
after cleaning off years of dirt.  No oil is presently leaking out of =
the boots, but it=E2=80=99s possible that it all leaked out many years =
ago, before we bought the car.  (The steering is a bit sticky when =
returning from full lock.)

Any advice from the list?

TIA,
Sarah Carr
