I didn't see a steering section.
Used to live in the northern climes where steering was a big deal for blowing off high pressure hoses until you get with the program and get custom hoses made with GM cold climate fluid then life gets a little better. I was using Acura fluid and had no issues also running a hydroboost on this truck.. Moving south I decided to change up the fluid to Dexron ATF. Was at a chassis dyno a month ago and the fluid starting spraying out the ps pump cap. Is this a function of poor choice of fluid or is the pump underachieving and overheating?
- I do have a small eom GM ps cooler tube and fin type, at the dyno airflow could be an issue.
- just installed a medium sized plate type trans cooler to replace above.
- removing spliced rubber lines and replacing with continuous runs.
- changing fluid to Redline ps fluid.
- I do have another pump in hand if deemed a good idea to change out. But current is not overly whiney.
