Grand Wagoneer Steering
My '84 GW power steering became jerky, and I thought it was due to low
fluid. I filled the fluid reservoir, and that seemed to solve the
problem for a short while, but now the PS seems to loose authority and
turn jerky on tight, slow turns, anytime the engine is hot. It seems
not as bad when the engine is first started.
Suggestions?
Thanks!

Re: Grand Wagoneer Steering
First thing to check is the belt tension. Sometimes they squeal like a
stuck pig when they are too loose, but not always.

The fan belt "looks" good--it seems to be at a proper tension;
however, if that is suspect, I would be happy to change it out, to
avoid trouble.
