I replaced the valve control on my power steering of my 66 300 with a used one. Now it is leaking like crazy. I used the O rings from an assortment I have and I am assuming they are too thin or not correct in some way. When I loosen it up to adjust the steering then retighten, it will leak. If I tighten it to stop the leak, the steering locks up so I am assuming I am over tightening. I have never worked on power steering before so i am a novice. This was a one owner car and only has 58000 miles after I drove it from Seattle, thru Canada and to NC mountains without any problems except the leak which was mild. I found a crack in the control valve and found a used one for it but haven't been able to keep it from leaking since.
Is there a place I can get the correct O rings? Any other suggestions. Love my 300 and want to drive it 12 miles every time I can afford a gallon of gas.

PS: Do they make a mattress that will fit the trunk, you can fit 4 people in it (or 6 if they are dead)
