Can't help with the part numbers, but I don't know if this needs to be
fixed. When my '85 was new, I discovered that the dealer consistently
disconnected the power steering boost valve, usually because of stalling
problems I was having during turns from a stop. I got the impression this
thing overcorrected and provided boost when it was not needed. Finally when
the one for the a/c went, he removed it and used the one for the p/s in its
place.

Years later, in a moment of perfectionism, I replaced the missing boost
valve, and hooked it up to the p/s pressure switch. Found out that my
stalling problems on turns returned. So I disconnected it again and
everything runs real fine now. Haven't missed it since.
