IML: 56 Imperial Power Steering

["tdcox" <tdcox@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks. It is more of a groan rather than a grind. And it does get better
after warming up and it almost goes away when driving above 30 mph. Is there
a good way to get air out of the lines?

Not being there, I can't say for sure, but I would guess that you are 
either listening to a loose belt, or air in the lines. These two sounds 
are completely different. The air sound is more of a groan than a 
grind. The belt sound is more of a squeal. Most of those have dual 
belts going to the generator/power steering pump and they really need 
to be a matched pair. if not one is tight and the other could be loose, 
making the noise.

My power steering fluid is full in the receptacle but I hear a 
?grinding? noise as though it were low on fluid when turning the 
steering wheel. It is worse when the engine is cold but it just about 
always sounds off when turning. Suggestions?
