Since it's been getting cold out (11 deg) overnight, my PS pump is making plenty of noise. It sounds like a FORD PS pump! I can't stand it! <br><br>Level is good, and the sound doesn't go away until temp has been at 190 for 10-15 mins. <br><br>Anyone make a PS fluid heater? Is there an additive that will help with this?<br><br>Thanks, <br>Mike

I heard royal purple makes a very good power steering fluid maybe it would help with your problem.<br><br>DRecu!

I know what you mean Mike. It got down to -2* the other day and mine was REALLY loud. Wonder if a good synthetic would help?
Oh yeah... How are you liking the great NW?

I've een having the same conversaton on the other site.<br>A few guys, as well as myself, have come to the conclusion that it is moisture in the PS fluid. <br>A PS fluid change with some good fluis should fix it. Royal Purple Max something was a recommended fluid.

I changed mine over to the Valvoline syn power steering fluid a couple years ago, works great no noise.

I flushed out the system and refilled w/ Royal Purple Max-EZ Power Steering fluid! No noise, works great! ;D<br><br>Tony

Good advice guy's. I think I'll stop and get some tomorrow. I can't stand the screaming anymore. <br>Now if I could get something for my kids...........

Sparkchaser- I like the NW. It's not Montana, but it is OK. <br><br>Jack- I've been keeping busy and am doing good.<br><br>Sounds like I will have to pick up some of that Royal Purple PS fluid. What is the best way to flush the old stuff?<br><br>Thanks for the tip on Royal Purple<br>Mike
