    Power steering fluid for autox

    So I ran the protege today with my newish hoosiers. The car was very fast a lot faster then I expected but I ran into a slight problem I couldn't make quick steering wheel movements. The power steering would bind up and I couldn't turn the wheel I noticed the fluid boiled over in the reservoir. I have never had this happen before and I was wondering if anyone else has had this issue and what you have done to solve it. I am thinking about flushing out the fluid with some new stuff but the pump is old and it worries me a bit that it might not like new fluid. 188,000 miles so any feedback would be much appreciated. Thanks.

    flush and add an aftermarket oil cooler .. should solve that issue



    adding better lubrication cant hurt the old pump ..

      45 second lap times and the fluid boils. Doesn't take much I guess.
