Power Steering Noise
I recently replaced the high pressure hose on the power steering pump (65 Mustang w/Eaton pump). Now I have a severe knock when I turn the steering wheel. Also, I am not sure if I am using the correct power steering fluid. My manual indicates an "F" type transmission fluid. While the dip stick indicates a type "A" fluid should be used.
Anyone have any experience here?
Thanks

RE: Power Steering Noise
check to see that the bottom of the hose isnt binding or rubbing up against the chassis, etc.
Any ATF should work in the pump. .
You may have air in the lines. To get it out, remove the p/s dipstick. With the engine running, slowly turn the steering wheel from lock to lock at least 4 times. . Then install the dipstick and recheck the fluid level, add as needed. Hope this helps.
