ok when i bought 192 the previous owner had the belt off the PS saying that the pump was bad. Well i bought a refurb and swapped the reservior from a Eclipse GSX. i've read thru a few of the aws removal guides and what not to see if i could find an answer. well the car is still somewhat hard to steer at certain points. i've tried to burp the ps lines to make sure there wasn't any air in the lines. Is there something i've missed or did wrong? if theres a thread about it point me too it. i tried searching and didn't exactly find a answer. also it seems the AWS light is intermittent.

You could have a rack issue, or a loose belt. try jacking the front end up and see if the steering is still hard at the same points, if it is you have a rack issue. If not, then you have a bent or kinked P/S line.

AWS light turning on usually means low PS fluid.
