Hard/Tight Power Steering
I have a 97 Honda Civic DX with 160,000 miles. It has been a great car, and has never needed any repair other than regular service. Until now...within the past 10,000 miles the steering has become very tight. (Tighter than a manual steering car) After reading a few posts, I flushed the fluid and immediately the steering was easy and normal feeling. Unfortunately, it didn't last long though and within 2 days, the steering was just as tight as it was before.
How can I determine whether this is the pump or the rack? Any other clues, suggestions?
Thanks,
Randy

Re: Hard/Tight Power Steering (randym4177)
My guess is either or, so I don't want to say anything.
Sorry I couldn't be of more help, but bump for the new guy
