Well I just got home from a drive in my ma70. everything was fine, filled it up with gas and about 30-40mins all of a sudden the steering slowly got really stiff. both right or left.
it's dark so i didn't really look much into it, early tomarrow i will, but till then, it smelled like i was burning ps fluid but i didn't find a leak (yet) and the ps resv. had fluid to the "hot" mark.
I replaced the rack and pinion about a year ago and hasn't had any problems till now. i'm guessing the power steering pump craped out? any opinions would help before i tackle it in the morning.
I also noticed it's not making the "door creaking" sound that usually comes with a empty/bad ps pump...?
