Yes to both. Many cars. Of course rest of ft. end must be good.

Check out your idler arm and inner/outer tie rod ends for play. The procedure for adjusting the steering box is in the manuals. The only gain will be the amount of play from left to right before you can feel contact or resistance.

If you have loose steering go find out why, as it may be something serious and dangerous.

thanks,
i'll have a look today,
should there be any play in the valve,
it's sideways movement where the arm connects to it????
