Bleeding/Missing Tech help

[Mark Woodland]

Many thanks in advance for all the good advice, past and future.
The latest...
1. After re-o-ringing the '86 5000 TQs hydraulic pump and filling (the pump
body) with fresh pentosin, I've put on over 50 miles and am still
experiencing a combination of A. Power assisted steering/no power assist to
brakes, and B. No power assisted steering/good power assisted brakes. I try
to plan well in advance for stops and turns, but its obvious I've overlooked
something. I've driven in circles in parking lots, at both full left and
right locks, topped up the fluid, etc... Any ideas? Could the failing bomb
have (coincidently) picked this time to pack it in, or is it still unbled
completely?
2. The '87 5KTQ has an intermittant low-load miss, from 1500/1800 up to 3000
rpms, at which point it smooths out and pulls like a train up to redline.
I've tried new tri-electrode plugs, wires, cap and rotor, as well as
multiple applications of Techron injector cleaner, all to no avail. Once
again, any ideas?
Thanks again,
Mark
