Simply count the # of turns it takes the steering wheel to turn from extreme left to extreme right. (...or vice-versa...) You'll find there are 2 different ratios: one taking like 4.75 turns, lock-to-lock; and 2nd one taking like 3.25 turns. Likely you have the one with greater turns, making it too easy to steer; you should get much better feel from the one with lesser turns.
You have adjusted the worm gear, haven't you? Sometimes too little engagement can make it too sensitive, slop-wise. Ironically, too deep engagement makes it too sensitive, causing it to wanna keep going too far in direction you just turned it.
HTH,
