    Sounds like the pump is not correct... if the RPM is up the pump is producing slightly more pressure. To me it sounds like you need to look into a standard volume; 1000-1200PSI GM pump.

    that doesnt seam to make sense to me.....if anything wouldnt to much pressure help it at low rpm......but it doesnt matter of rpm......if i rev up the motor while im sitting it still doesnt get easier to steer at a stop...and if that was the case about volume then it would get easier......what would happen if i got the pressure and return back wards....i do have to double check that but am 99 percent i got them right....

    and jsut so you know in your catalog you guys have the same pump and reservoir for sale.....i called you guys at cpp asking if i can buy just the clip on reservoir and the guy i talked to said that you guys buy it as a package from unisteer and you guys cannot just sell me the reservoir so he told me to contact unisteer......SO I DID and they said that yes they sell them to you guys and it is the hi flow one with the clip on reservoir and that the standard pump wont do i need the hi flow as it would be the same one id purchase from cpp anyway......so instead of them passing the buck onto you guys and you guys passing the buck on to them can we try and come up with a solution.....maybe i did something wrong....i dont know its possible i have the return and pressure back wards...what are you thoughts other than its the pump....thanks

    The pressure and the volume are too different things. The pump you have sounds like its for a rack and pinion (lower pressure) 1000-1200PSI is a gear box pressure. STANDARD volume is needed. Check to see what pressure your pump is producing and you certainly need a standard volume pump.

    Oh sometimes the steering box is tight you can contact the service center and they will loose this or might be the problem is with pump so surely you'll connect the service center. I hope soon you come out with this problem and drive freely
