So Ive been working on the XJ all week and replacing the alternator. Took her in for an oil change (I just dont have the time w/ my work schedule). They recommended a PS flush. Im not about to pay $160 for them to do that. So I used a bulb syringe and sucked out the fluid and ran a few bottles through it till it was pretty clear. Now I have this bad screeching sound when I turn the wheel. It doesnt really do it at full lock more in the middle of the turning radius.
Ive done a search and it seems that I may have tighted the bolt on the PS pulley too tight when replacing it after putting a new alt in? Im pretty sure the belt is tight enough. Im just not sure whats causing the noise (almost sounds like screeching tires in a parking garage...like eeeeeeeeeeee). Any help is appreciated.
Also wondering if I do have to replace the pump how much am I looking at? Would this be a good time to upgrade? If so what upgrades are available?
Thanks
Mike
