Steering wheel jumps to the left

[Nads54]

Hi people my 172 steering is very twitchy and jumps about to the left, also veers off to left when letting go of steering wheel, would getting the tracking done sort this out?

A lot of places will check alignment for free. Worth getting it checked as a starting point as it might also be worn or damaged components.

Are the tyre pressures correct?

Could be anything, if it's particularly violent get it looked at sharp, probs a snapped spring if so. Or just alignment, crap tyres

What should the pressures be on these?

Its got ns2r on front and some ching chongs on the back but only use these to drive to track on then swap over to r888 I know the springs are okay as they've not long been changed for cooksports but steering was same before they were changed so maybe it is an alignment issue

If on cooksports I'd defo be checking them for snapping
