my 86 stang whistles like crazy but the power steering fluid is good and full ... im thinking i just need a new pump and maybe some injecters cause my car acts as if its starving for fuel and kinda wants to cut out but when i hit the gas nice and hard it runs as smooth as a baby bottom

Maybe its getting too much fuel. Either way, add some fuel injector cleaner, and check your TPS/O2 sensors. My power steering fluid is full too, and when I took the belt of to turn the accessories, the power steering pump felt a little worn, I'm having my buddy help me figure it out this weekend, so we'll see. </P>


But a new starter is in order, anyone know how hard/easy it is to put in, what needs to come off, I havn't had a chance to look.</P>
