Re: Bad Power Steering Pump?

Thanks. I think I will try this first because as I said before, the noise seems to go away a little when I turn the wheel and put "Tension" on the steering. I am not very familiar with these cars, that is why I had YT do all all my work for me. I will try to look at this myself so I have a few questions: Do I check to see if it is spinning freely with the engine off? Do I need to take anything off to get to this pulley?
