Posted May 9, 201411 yr I don't know if this is normal, but at idle my power steering doesn't work well. Like that when I bought the truck and has not gotten any worse. Not low or loosing fluid.
May 10, 201411 yr Either one of two things come to mind. One is drain and flush the system or the other is to up the pressure from the pump. TURNING UP THE PRESSURE
May 10, 201411 yr There is also a possibility the inlet screen is plugged or partially plugged. It is in the inlet line to the pump. Like Tom says if the fluid is old a good flush may be in order as well. Edited May 10, 201411 yr by diesel4life
