Power Steering question
I installed power steering on my 66 Chevy C10 that has a 250 6 cylinder. I used a conversion kit from CPP. I purchased a new quick ration power steering gear box from Advance Auto Parts. I purchased a used power steering pump from eBay. When the engine speed is over 1000 RPMs it works nice. But at idle there is now power in the steering. Is it a bad pump or is the pulley to big and therefore the pump is not turning fast enough at idle?
Any thoughts?

Re: Power Steering question
I agree with a bad pump.
