Power Steering 76 Camaro
Just got this car little over a month ago, and trying to work out
the bugs. Power steering has now gone out, and I never had much
problem with this before on any vehicles. Pump looks fairly new,
no leaks, fluid level is correct. I am assuming it can only be the
pump or the power steering gear box. Don't know if pump can be
tested or not before going out and getting a new one. Could the
gear box just go bad? Like I said, never a power steering problem
before on anything except hoses. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Problem description is vague to say the least. Tried to bleed the system? Start the car and turn the wheel full left too the stop hold for a sec. Do the same to the right, too the stop and hold it a sec. That will bleed it then come back and give a better description of the problem at hand. Probably get more information that way.I have two brains, one is lost and the other is out looking for it

Bleeding did not help. A new rebuilt pump solved the problem. The pump which
was taken off looked very new with stickers still on it. Guess a person just can't
go by looks.
