Power Steering Squeel??

[Chris Kulbaba]

I think I found out whats squeeking in my vehicle...



It seems to come from the pulley for the P/S Dir (thats what its called on the belt diagram under the hood) Is there a way to fix this? It doesnt sound nice, its worse than ever now...

Anyone able to help? I want to fix this today... but I have no idea whats required... if I have to replace just the wheel, or that whole metal unit its attached to??

ck, probably just the wheel. The bearing is prbably pressed in the pulley. Dumb question, did you already replace the belt? I think that is one of the problem areas for when a belt is worn. The belt actually gets "thrown" over the pulley and it squeels. Just a thought.
