Guys, I've noticed while looking for the cause of my annoying ticking sound (that I may have mentioned before :-)r ) .. that after a short drive and the truck is upto temp, the power steering fluid seems to be dancing around in the resevoir quite a lot :? ... I dont [i]think[i]its bubbleing, but the resevoir feels pretty hot to the touch, and the fluid is sploshing around a fair bit in there :shock: ... is this normal ?

If it's not "sloshing around in there" is when you have a problem,IE no flow.It will also get hot,small system so less fluid to absorb heat and why you should replace the PS fluid at least every 30k.
