BillinAL,
I syphoned out the old PS fluid (three times) and replaced it with Type FA AT fluid. I hasn't made an appreciable difference in the steering. In as little as 15 min of city driving, I can tell that the effort to move the wheel is getting harder. The pump still gets very hot (too hot?) - way too hot to touch. I need to use a rag to remove the cap when checking the fluid level. Any other ideas?

Does anyone have any input about how hot their pump gets when driving?
