Looking at replacing power steering pump on the VN V6 and there seems to be a lot of no name brands about.
Anyone have a recommendation on what wont be junk?
Me again with more fun of dailying a VN.
Last night on the highway I had a bit of a noise at 110k and battery light etc so pulled over.
Power steering pulley bolts had worked loose a bit and caused the belt to shred.
Tightened bolts back up and rigged up what was left of belt to try and limp...
So after my previous woes with the TPS and changing the throttle body and TPS over to fix it, last night I started getting a CEL while driving home, However it was only showing CEL when I wasn't touching throttle (like rolling downhill on highway etc)

Well I went for a drive about 15k down the highway and back, It seems to run alright but CEL stays on, came back through town and I noticed there is a little hesitation (almost like a misfire) taking off from a dead stop like set of lights.
