Rubbing sound from Power Steering.. Escudo 8V '90

Hey there, I hear a rubbing sound in the steering column when I turn the wheel with the engine running. Its not there when the engine is off. Is that the power steering box? Oil Level is good. Fluid seems ok.
Is it a common fixable issue? Any ideas ?

:cry:

I think we should be find making at least 120KW. The only concern would be piston temps and as long as its intercooled and not too lean on the lambda, it should be fine. Head gasket looks like it will be replaced with a thicker one anyway. Possibly solid copper. I have been lookin for Dyno figures ...

After having a look at it, the best idea seems to replace the double-pulley on the crank with a triple and bin the radiator fan, replacing with thin electric one. Then the 3rd pulley might make it directly to the supercharger. I'm most concerned with the fuel requirements. I don't think the factory ...

Supercharging Project

Hey they, I'm supercharging my 8 Valve Escudo. Keen on what you're making up for the brackets and pulleys. Above the exhaust seems quite Do-able but I have decided to look at at SC14 instead of an SC12. They pump 1.4L every rpm which should run about 12-13PSI and I'll intercool it which should be ...

Yeah... Sorted the gear lever thing. The screw that holds the hand-hold lever was screwed in too far. Hmm.. simple fix. But would like to know about the auto models and which ones could be swapped over..

Suzuki auto options

Hi Guys, do you know what models of auto's there are and how interchangeable they are? i.e. 3 speed auto, 3 speed with O/D, 4 speed etc.. Also, on the suzuki automatics, the gear-locking thing on the gear lever doesn't work. Meaning you can select any gear incl Reverse and Park while the car is ...

'09 Escudo Auto issues: can u Help??

I have a just bought a '90 Escudo with 16A and 3 speed auto. When cold, it changes into 2nd ok but when into 3rd it free revs for a couple of seconds then changes into 3rd. As soon as it warms up (2 mins driving) it all of a sudden goes fine. Could it be low oil pressure caused an oil blockage ...
