hey guys i just cleaned my engine today, and i covered all the necessary parts, and let it dry the correct amount of time. When i got in to go to school, I noticed that when i turned either way, the steering wasn't as smooth. I could feel it on the steering wheel it felt like a grinding, i rolled down my window and it didn't sound any different, just the normal whinney ford power steering pump. I sprayed some wd-40 on what i could see looked like power steering parts...but its still doing it..

Could the water i used earlier today messed it up temporiaily?
or even worse
could i have permently damaged it?

thanks
ryan
