i am just wondering if any of you guys could shead some light on to my problem and help loacate it. when i am driving down the highway the car handles fine no problems but when i go to make a sharp corner or take a corner to fast its like my power steering cuts out
could be all your fuel is going to one side of the tank and it starves for a sec and loses a bit of power.
I'd think there's more than a "sec" worth of fuel in the fuel line and rails. If there's adequate fluid, it's not black as and the pump is putting out the right flow and pressure than there's probably something wrong inside the rack, a leak maybe? Does the fluid level drop over time?
When you spin the steering wheel too fast it will feel like the power steering cuts out. What happens is the piston in the rack moves too fast for the pressure of the fluid from the pump and it cathes up to the pressure on the other side of the piston. This pressure pushes back as if you are turning the wheel the opposite way and the steering gets hard momentarily until the pressure equalizes again.
No, I'm saying it is normal if you are trying to turn the wheel too fast. Has it only just started doing this?
well it has been this way since i bought it and before i bought it was sitting in a shead and hadent moved for a good year
