Figured this is the best thread to post my question but please move it if it belongs elsewhere. Anyone know if the MSP power steering pumps and lines are the same as say the generation 3 protege/p5's/200x era proteges. Mine bought the farm and id really like to just find one at a wrecker and...

Hey Hey I call apon the MSP gurus to answer what could be a very simple question for someone who is familiar with the car more then me. The other night I was driving and I started to notice a slight pull in the steering wheel every 30 seconds or so. would jerk to the side without actually...

Hey hey. so im making good progress bringing my speed back up to top shape and ive hit a bit of a snag. originally i noticed i was leaking power steering fluid but due to funds i couldnt get it looked at nor would i have the funds to fix the problem anyhow, because of that i believe the pump...

Alright guys. i think everyone here is aware that the MSP isnt a powerhouse platform. However after a little bit of thinking Ive decided id like to have my MSP put out 16 psi without blowing up. Now from what ive seen of being on the boards for 6 months, people seldomly go over 12 psi without...
