Default Steering control valve, Saginaw valve

Hey guys,
I am having trouble with my steering, I think it is the steering control valve. Merc doesn't have parts for it any more. It is
called a Saginaw valve, they switched to a brazil valve. Any body have a Saginaw valve they would want to sell ?

Thanks
John

Bristol = Brazil valve

But I have a Saginaw valve that I can sell from a Bravo. Post some pics of your current system, and I'll check and see if its the same as the one I have. Mine is from a 1988 Bravo.
