It's 4 degrees where I live. My ps pump whines like a baby....lol. Doesn't affect performance though. Just a little more kickback fromthe hydroboost actually.


Adios all.

did you check the fluid level? have you flushed the pump at all? could be bearings not getting enough lube...

Mine was find when i started it at -15 below Sunday night. I wonder if its because the newer PS units now use ATF4 instead of what ever they used back in 95!

Right now I have -4 below and its snowing, you or anyone else in the east want some as it is heading that way!
