powersteering pump i think? about a week ago i got a death knock coming from the engine we thought but couldnt find it and it ended up going away after a day, was my water or power steering pump going bad was my thought after actually listing to it cause it wasnt a rythematic sound but, well a week later (last night) i lost my power steering completly, checked fluid and it was good so my guess is between the noise from last week and last nights events it was my pump making noise and then finally giving out last night, main question is how hard or how do u go about taking the power steering pump off, like what else has to come off and is it fairly simple? or if u guys think it isnt the pump what should i check? thanks

ight thanks, some one said check the screen in the reservoir and make sure its not clogged, is it easy to check, just behind the rubber hose on the reservoir is what it sounded like? correct?
