Thread: power steering pump question

Im pretty sure that im low on fluid because when i turn a sharp corner it starts to wine and then wont stop and by it sounds its either that or a tensioner so i figured i would stop here. i was just wondering if you could overfill the resevoir and cause damage to the pump? also what is the best way to bleed the lines on these. Ps finding the opening on the resevoir took me about 45 min couldnt they have put a yellow cap on there jeeze

No. Over filling may can not cause damage to the pump. But may cause overflowing when the fluid get's hot.


If it's only when you turn then it is not an idler pulley.

I got her all figured out i just hope that i dont have to bad of a leak. thanks alot for the help come to find out there is a lable on top of the cap but the engine bay in my car looks like it hasnt been cleaned since the car was built. that will be my next project after i get the paint cleaned up
