It's funny how this thread has come back up, as Ive just had to order another new steering pump for our 203. I converted it to the round type pump nearly 2 years ago, but the pump seems to be leaking oil into the engine and hasn't got the power it had when new. Presumable these cheap pumps are chinese or something, made of cheese. Anyway, the one coming is a Danfoss from White house products, so hopefully will last longer.

Danfoss is a brand name isn't it

Adjust the linkage to the valve on the back of the column, it's bad to get to without taking the dash off though. Steering wheel moves up and down when you first turn it, that's what operates the power steering, hard to explain but it's simple really

Hope so, it was £100 more than a no name one..........
