Hi-
My 90' 240 wagon with about 180k has suddenly developed a "heavy steering" feel to it. The steering is sluggish and heavy, like a car would feel with really low tire pressure up front. PS fluid is fine and so is the tire pressure. Is there any other option than a new PS pump? Is there a way to diagnose (my worse talent) the PS pump? Any suggestions on checking other possible situations that would cause this? Thanks in advance!


Regards,

Tim
