RE: link rod for 90/Coupe?
Sounds like what my wife's old '87 5KSQ usta do when it was low on
Pentosin. The P/S pump would complain, until I fed it more Pentosin. Its
appetite was due to the usual rack leaks. New rack will require CPR
after you discover the price, but reman ones are *much* cheaper. I was
able to maintain lack of groaning by the simple expedient of frequent
feeding of the pump with Pentosin. Kind of like keeping a fresh Band-Aid
on the cut that won't heal. HTH.

No "tink"s or "clunk"s... mild groan to be more exact. Car can
be
stationary to hear it as well. All it takes is a turning of the
steering
wheel.
