I agree with wingless about using the set up manual, but I also suggest that you start by separating the outdrive from the steering system. Your problem may not be in the power steering components but may be in the hinge mechanism of the out drive. The 2 systems can be separated by removing the Clevis pin that is located on the steering arm that comes thru the transom. Behind the distributor..once removed you should be able to stand behind the drive and easily rotate it side to side. Let us know your results.

I had a similar issue on my 310. First replaced power steering pump. Then the cylinder. Then the rack and cable. Finally it works as it should.
