Finally got around to testing the PS solenoid valve per ST41 (90 Q) apply 12v to connector and listen for click.

The FSM says to listen for a click.... how loud is it, I do hear some thing but not much... less sound than an injector makes, a sort of very muted little tic.Is this enough of a click , or is it loud?Everything else on it tests fine (??????)

The symptoms are very sluggish steering when hot, perfect when cold, and pump noises (whiny) like it's working real hard -when it's not. It burned the PS fluid when it got sluggish. Took the pump apart completely and cleaned it then flushed (again). Rack feels normal when pushed/pulled from side to side.

Yes -fresh fluid since I bought it... about 3X now in 40K anal...
