could a leaky power steering pump cause the truck to run rough?
after paragon 2 weeks ago, my power steering pump is leaking real bad from the pulley, no big deal really ( i have another one sitting on the workbench anyway) but i noticed that it is whining real loud and i'm thinking that it is causing the pulleys for the rest of the motor to spin slower, as if it's binding almost. i'm going to replace it tomorrow but i'm just curious about the motor maybe running ough and slightly hotter than normal.
also my check engine light came on and i noticed that my air/fuel gauge is constantly lean al of a sudden....o2 sensor right?!!
