Poor returnability and sticky steering is used to describe the poor return of the steering wheel to center
after a turn or the steering correction is completed.
Shimmy
Shimmy, as observed by the driver, is large, consistent, rotational oscillations of the steering wheel
resulting from large, side-
to-side (lateral) tire/wheel movements.
Shimmy is usually experienced near 64 km/h (40 mph), and can begin or be amplified when the tire
contacts pot holes or irregularities in the road surface.
Wander
Wander is the tendency of the vehicle to require frequent, random left and right steering wheel
corrections to maintain a straight path down a level road.

GENERAL PROCEDURES
Purging —CII Power Steering Pump
CAUTION: If the air is not purged from the power steering system correctly, premature
power steering pump failure can result. This condition can occur on pre- delivery vehicles with
evidence of aerated fluid or on vehicles that have had steering component repairs.
1. NOTE: A whine heard from the power steering pump may be caused by air in the system. The
power steering purge procedure must be performed prior to any component repair for which
power steering noise complaints are accompanied by evidence of aerated fluid.
Remove the reservoir cap. Check the fluid level. If necessary, fill the reservoir to the correct
level.
zUse Motorcraft MERCON® Multi-Purpose ATF XT -2-QDX or MERCON® equivalent.
2. Tightly insert the Vacuum Pump stopper into the reservoir.
3. Start the vehicle.
4. Using the special tool, apply maximum vacuum and maintain it for a minimum of three minutes with the engine speed set at idle. SECTION 211-
