1996 XLT Shaking during turns after it was in the shop

[Przybysz]

A few days ago I had my 96 towed to a shop because the fuel pump went out and I didnt know i could replace it myself. Well I got it back about 30 minutes ago and the first thing I noticed was that it was shaking a little bit when I'm turning (left or right) Its icy out but it almost feels like its in 4x4 but its only in 2wd.

I had a new fuel pump, new fuel filter, and an oil change done on it. Should it be doing this?

I swear on my life it wasnt doing the shaking before it went in... I know he had it in the air for a while but would that do anything? What should I do?

If they turned the steering wheel with the engine not running it will cause air to get into the system. Make a few lock to lock turns with the steering wheel and it should purge the air and go away.

find an empty parking lot and drive in figure 8's for a few trips around, probably air in the steering system, and the turning left and right will get it out,

check your fluid first... this happened when I got my truck back once because they didnt keep the steering fluid full

Thank you for all the replies

It is not doing it anymore because I did a few lock to lock turns. But I will check the fluid tomorrow.
