strange noise on start-up from engine PS
Hey,

On Satruday, I also changed my PS fluid. I removed the ATF from the pump and put in a whole bottle of Lucas powersteering conditioner. The thck stuff. now, when the car is cold, I start it and it makes a little scream then goes away. I gues this would be from the thick Lucas fluid in the pump?

I have to remove at least half of it and put in ATF again to lower the viscosity of the oil in the pump.

anyone else have this issue?
