Yesterday I as I left Block Is. i had no steering pressure, the air valve leaked. I tool a metal cap off one of the bicycles to solve the problem after i aired it up.
Once in the sloopy sea left behind by Bill, I get a rudder responce error, I checked all of the connections and then checked the AP motor, a 160, and found pleanty of dust from the brushes, i blew the motor out installed the brushes ans all was well again. My pump is installed with bthe brushes down, this might be a good idea. the dust is at the bottom of the pump, you can pull the brushes out and blow right through bthe pump.
Might something to check each year at the begining of the season.
