Interesting. Well I drained my powersteering pump and filled it with Lucas and man it made a world of difference. Its starting to moan again when pushing on brake pedal and turning but I'm most likely just gonna replace it

Did you just siphon out what you could, or did you do the flush as described in the link? Mine worked better and was quieter. Now I siphon out the pump everytime I do an oil change to help keep it fresh.

Do a flush on it with ATF MERCON V too get that lucas additive out and I bet your moan goes away. The only thing in there should be ATF.
