2 of my tractors have what I would call slow power steering. The steering assist works, but if you try to turn the wheel fast, there is a lot of resistance. RPMs don't seem to affect the 841 (you could run it wide open and the steering doesn't work any better). Running the engine faster does help the 4610. Both tractors have Traviller UTF in the power steering. Both tractors have been flushed and new fluid added. The 4610 has had a new filter installed.
I am thinking that the UTF is too viscous to be used as power steering fluid. I was thinking of trying a thinner fluid, but I don't know what to try.
