Went to the storage yard intending to bring the Beast home for a
cleanup however when started up a loud groaning noise was heard under
the hood, which got louder when applying the brakes. Nursed her to
the shop around the corner where my reliable mechanic when he heard me
coming into the yard told me the power steering fluid was low. Topped
it up and the noise disappeared. The fact the noise got louder when
applying the brakes kind of confused me but he informed me the power
brakes get their boost from the power steering pump. Learn something
new every day. Anyway he is going to check tomorrow to see where the
leak is. Hope whatever it is will not be too expensive.
