Will a Nissan Pulsar steering wheel fit on a Nissan sunny 1.4 ls hatback steering coloum?
if the year of the car is the same, then it should fit.
before 92 and aftr 92 were two different fittings so have a check. i have a pulsar gtir steering on my 1.4 and it wrks and fits fine. so if your car is post 92, then the steering should come from a post 92 car also. other cars that also fit include the primera, 100nx, terrano and 100nx. although the primera sits a bit close to the column stalks.
Where is the power steering reservoir Chevrolet Malibu 3.5 l v6 2006?
There isn't one!! This is funny because I just took my car to the shop today just because the information center in my 2006 Malibu 3.5 kept saying "power steering". There was no information along with this message so i had no clue what to do about it. i took the front right tire off, as i was told to do by a autozone tech, and jacked the car up. still no power steering reservoir.... when i told the mechanic this, this morning, he laughed and said that it was an electric steering system which runs off the alternator. there is no fluid because it is electric rather than hydraulic.
if your car is displaying that message too, good luck. the mechanic could not find any reason that my car was displaying that.
my car steered perfect, even when the message came on.

How do you change power steering pump in Peugeot 306 TD year 96?
Release the drive belt tension and remove the drive belt from the pump. Clamp the reservoir hoses or empty reservoir and disconnect hoses from the reservoir. It may give better access if you remove the pulley from the pump. Unscrew the 4 bolts holding the pump to the bracket. Once refitted bleeding is done by turning the steering from lock to lock until no more bubbles in the reservoir, engine running to do this.

How do you take off power steering tension pully?
I believe you are referring to the power steering pulley. The tensioner pulley is a different system altogether. You must, however, locate the tensioner pulley to remove the belt before you remove the power steering pulley.
The tensioner pulley should be generally easy to access from the top of the engine bay. It is the only pulley that should be attached to an arm that is mounted somewhere close on the block. (with the engine running at idle, look for the pulley that appears to be bouncing up and down). Turn the engine off before next steps...
Use a tensioner tool to move the tensioner pulley away from the belt. With tension removed from the belt, the belt should slide off of the pulleys. With the belt now removed, you will loosen the bolt that holds the power steering pulley in place.
(Power steering pulley is located on the power steering gear box, locate this by finding the power steering fluid reservoir. The reservoir should sit directly above the gear box).
Once the bolt is removed, the pulley should come off the shaft (with some force). You may have to use a pulley puller tool if it does not come off by hand.
Installation is reverse of removal. Good luck.
How do you tell if it's the pump or the hose leaking power steering in a Chevy Monte Carlo?
Turn your vehicle off and then wipe the excess fluid from the power steering pump and line. Survey the power steering pump to see if their are any holes or dings. It may be hard to see so try using your hand to feel around. You may have to wait for engine to cool. If you did not find any leeks then top off the power steering fluid. Watch the power steering line while having a partner or friend turn the engine on and turn the steering wheel fully in one direction and the same in the opposite direction. Watch the power steering line to see how far up it is leaking. If you can not see where it is leaking because of too much fluid leaking, then re-wipe and try again. If you still can't tell then take the line off and make sure the hole on the pump where the bolt goes in is not damaged. Then make sure the bolt itself is not damaged.
If the hole or pump is damaged then you need a new pump and if the line or bolt is damaged you need a new line.

Steering into the turn. When you enter a LEFT hand turn, you turn the steering wheel so the tires turn to the Left. If the back of the car begins to slide out of the curve, then you can steer RIGHT and it will slide the car back around.

Depending on what kind of power we're talking about here, if you mean 'power' as in work dived by (/) time, as in, not 'power' as in watts, but as in physical power, then here is the calculation:
" work
---------
time "
But, if you want to know 'power' power, than I suggest you look it up on a search engine.
