    Power steering

    Okay, I'm here to eat a bit of crow. You were correct. I checked the pressure output of the pump and it was at 200 PSI. ordered the new pump, put it on and wala I have power steering. Thanks again!!!

    Power steering

    Yeah, I agree, that's why I removed the high pressure line and cranked the motor to check for flow. It had a lot of flow. I thought I mentioned that.

    Power steering question

    Thanks you for your input. I did mention in my first post question that it is a federal pump. No worries, I appreciate all the help. It is no longer leaking but I still have the hardness while in a parking lot. I'm sure I adjusted the pump tension correctly but I will do it again just to make sure.

    Power steering question

    The person that I bought the pump from said to use ATF, so I wanted to stay in there guidelines in case of a warranty issue. I did some further research on different Chrysler forums about the fluid and more than once Prestone was recommended. Pulley size has not changed. I had this issue on a 66...

    MSD troubles

    Okay my fellow c body friends. I have ran an MSD ignition on my 68 383 Monaco for 10 years or more and it has ran fine. I just put a 496 stroker kit in it and it's all hooked up but no juice at the coil. The MSD box has power going in and it also pulses. So the distributor is talking to it but...
