Re: Stiff Power Steering On 1991 Camry

Not to be a wet blanket here but I too have a 91 Camry and my power steering had developed a slow leak, my oldest son topped it off several times with power steering fluid rather than the needed Dexron. To make a long story short the pump failed, the steering got hard and nothing I did revived it. I have no hard and fast proof but I think the generic power steering fluid dramatically accelerated the pump failure. Brace yourself for likely pump replacement, shorty wrenches, a socket u-joint (wobbly) and much patience will make the job less painful.
