i may well be answering my own question here but need to double check..
my power steering seems rather heavy and with the help of a friend the problem seems to be that the fluid is not moving in the resevoir.
so with that in mine we believe that i could be either the pump or hopefully the power steering pressure switch,which we believe opens the flow to the rack ?
the pump still makes all the right noises but the steering is just heavy.
your help on this would be welcome.
