so when sitting still, if i turn it left or right while sitting still, ill get a whine........shoot me but i havent even checked the fluid....woops......while moving just a little it wont do it......its a 98 z28 with 95000 miles so i guess i gotta assume that its original fluid........so whatsthe best way of getting all the old fluid out?

 

Turn it like you said to make it whine and get it a rev, if the whine gets louder with the Rpms than you can be sure it is the ps pump, I'd check your fluid, mine was whining too and I was low, hasn't done it since

 

........I would just check the fluid. After that probably add some.

 

its not worth taking theold out and adding new?

 

Don't take this too hard, but common sense seemed to have received a brutal kick off these forums..

Of course its worth adding new fluid, at the minimum CHECK THE FLUID LEVEL and top off if needed. Get a turkey baster thing and suck the fluid out and add some more, turn the wheel a bunch to cycle it through, and repeat. I'm assuming I should add in this - dont turn the wheel until you've topped off the fluid
