I am still working the bugs out of the 4000 SU that I bought a couple months ago. You guys have helped me in the past so I am back with another question. My power steering pump makes quite a bit of noise; sounds almost like a loud buzzing noise. Only makes the noise when there is no load on it. If I turn the steering wheel just a little, the noise goes away. Is this a rebuildable item? If so, where should I look for parts?

I look forward to the day when I have learned enough to be a help to others.

I wonder if the PS seems to be working OK except for the noise. The comment about a clogged filter should be noted. Restricted filter/suction lines can cause pump cavitation, which sometimes is described as a buzzing--other times described like ball bearings rattling. Prolonged cavitation can ruin a pump. However, a cavitating pump probably wouldn't produce much PS.

Hi Bill
Have you changed the filter in the power stearing pump lately? It may be about clogged.
Good Luck ////CRS///

CRS, Oh dear; I didn't even know there is a filter in there somewhere. If that can cause the noise, it may be my problem. Thanks for trying to help, Bill

Hi,
My Ford 3000 Gas has a piston type power steering pump. It has been noisy since new 31 years ago and it still works fine. Too bad the e-mail doesn't give us a chance to hear the noise of concern.

Rem, I think my pump is the type with two gears, like a typical engine oil pump. I think! How does that affect my situation??
