[V8] Power Steering Hose redux

[dsaad@icehouse.net]

I did. The connection at the pump side is leaking.

It is in the mail as of today. Spokane Hose says they will stand behind their
work. The bummer is the FedEX overnight charges...

Does anyone else ever feel pulsations in the steering wheel when turning?
I have been noticing that lately. It feels like a rythmic pulsation in the pump
somehow.
I have noticed this on occasion ever since I got the car, but either I simply
don't notice it sometimes, or it does not always do it. I am starting to wonder
if I might be over pressure somehow. Is there a pressure relief or regulator
somewhere in the system?
