				Since I had the 416 LS3 installed in the car I've been chasing a few problems: 1) a clunk in the steering from a stop. Inner tie rods? the steering feels a little odd, I already replaced the PS pump and drained/refilled fluid with new. Problem still exists. 2) RPMs drop when steering goes to full lock in both directions and if I don't feed it throttle the engine will die (still dies regardless sometimes). Rarely- but also rev matching on down shifts coming to a stop (no steering input) the RPMs dip just below 500rpm and then they come back up to idle..has died a couple times. Or an alternative to low RPM is high RPM idle after to coming to a stop from rev matching down shifts (sometimes without downshifts). It will idle around 1300 then after being stationary for ~3 seconds it drops back to the 800/900 idle. 3) Throttle cable on the NW 96 TB is loose causing a lag in the throttle input, how do I adjust this? Any help or input? |

				Did you replace the pump with an OEM/stocker, or is it a PSC, or a Turn One?

New AC Delco..same as what you get from factory. The change in pumps and fluid did absolutely nothing. It acts the same after as it did prior. didn't want to spend the $ on a turn one or other knowing I won't be tracking the car much if at all for a while...plus I'm contemplating selling This post has been edited by Chris Ronson Jr: Jul 7 2012, 12:48 PM |
