Hello all:
I am working to move my car (Saturn) from ITA to FP and have a dilemma - what to do with the power steering. The way I see it, I have (3) options:
1) Run the power steering as stock.
2) Disable the power steering component of the existing rack.
3) Find a manual rack to install in place of the existing power rack.
While option 3 does exist (there were base model saturns without power steering), the likelihood of finding a rack before the start of the season is not good (for me, anyway). So, I am left pondering options 1 and 2.
Any advice based on your experiences would be appreciated. Additionally, if I do option 2, what is the best method for doing so? Do I crimp off the hose ends or run a loop between the ends and insure it is filled with PS fluid?
Thank you,
Bill
