SOURCE: won't start

check the spark, if spark is weak it will not start, also if battery is weak it will not start, it will crank but most of the AMP from batttery is taken by the starter.

Does the crank shaft sensor control the spark on a toyota tocoma 1998

A bad pump sometime for a fast diagnosis get somebody to crank the engine and you take a hammer a knock on the gas tank 90 percent of the time the electric pump will start your truck its not a fix its a simple way to see that the gas pump is the problem change it

Do you have return hose fluid coming back to pump?

Sounds like a it isn't getting thru the rack to operate it

Check bulletins on Alldata or Identifix

There may be spool defect issues or something in rack

If you had advance do the pump.how would they or you
as a mechanic, leave the shop with no fix for the problem

Hard steering on cold start

This could be a bad steering rack or power steering pump, the correct way to find out which one is the problem a gauge would need to be hooked to power steering pump and when cold watch the pressure readings and if pressure is low then you replace the pump but if pressure if good then rack has internal leak, compare readings when cold and when it operates good.

How do you know if your power stearing pump is going bad on a 1998 ford expedition

When the power steering pump is going bad, you will be hearing a humming sound when you turn the steering while on idling and while driving at high speed.

At situations like this no repair can be done. Replacement is the recommended solution when you got a bad power steering pump.

Good luck and rate this.

Power steering problem when moving slow or rpm drop

no it is the power steering pump. the pump is worn so at low rpm or low speeds it is real tough to steer. but when the rpm is picked up the steering gets easier.

Also check belt tension but at high rpm speeds the belt would slip and squel real loud. so i would point the problem to the power steering pump.

hope this fixs ya!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
