Default PS pump is bad!

My PS pump is Loud.. Has been for a while i guess. when the hood is up, it'* louder then a stock M62... I'll shoot some vid later... but yah, louder then the M62, in all seriousness.

It'* making noise, i've seen some fluid on the outside from time to time, the shop my mom works at told me the PS pump was weak when i had a pre purchase inspection.

Will an SSEi one work? I don't have it here... otherwise i can get a new one...

It'* usually the shaft seal that leaks. I just bought a rebuild kit yesterday for $10 CDN and had a GM Tech rebuild it for $20, of course I removed and brought him the pump.

At the same time I installed a GM high pressure hose for $75 replacing the Gates unit I had on there.

Cheers,
