ok got a '95 XJ that I am having an interesting problem with. Around August I went out to my local mud hole only to find it dried up. undeterred, I decided it'd be fun to do doughnuts. now, up until this point, power steering was amazing. one finger to turn the wheel. well, one of the bolts on my skid plate busted out, and it hung low enough that it would get caught on the steering knuckle. also, my power steering disappeared. so, being a jeeper, I continued on. well, got rid of the skid plate, but didn't worry about the power steering. Months passed. In March, I went out on a run and was doing doughnuts in mud, and inexplicitly my power steering CAME BACK! man was I happy! I'd figured I'd broke my power steering pump. well, that excitement lasted about 3 weeks. then, just as fast as it came back, I lost it again!
it just doesn't make sense to me! I don't get any whining from the pump, it has plenty of fluid. I haven't greased the joints, but I really don't think that has anything to do with it. it's a complete mystery to me! can anyone help?
