Power steering pump rebuild?
« Reply #15 on: December 06, 2007, 10:32:10 am »
I put in some Lucas Power Steerring Fix it or whatever it's called from CT.
It fixed the leaking, at least most of it, as the level stays prety much constant. But the pump still makes noise. I found a pump for about 170 at Precision Tuning.
I was so swamped with work and all I wasn't able to do anything about it. Now, I'll be gone for a week, by the time I get back I am afraid is gonna be like -20 and it's gonna be even harder to work on the car.
I hope that next weekend to be able to flush the system and put some new power steering fluid in. Also check all the lines and rack to see where it was leaking from.
Damn it all. Don't buy a "new" old car at the beggining of winter. :(
