[Christ]

I removed the PS on both my Civic's, all my CRX's and several of my trucks. I really don't like PS, honestly, except in extremely heavy vehicles, it's nice.

I never really noticed that it was any harder to turn the wheel after the removal than it was while sitting w/ the engine off before removing the pump.

I also never crossed the PS lines, I just drained the fluid from the rack and put caps on the nipples that the lines attach to on the rack. PS racks aren't lubricated by PS fluid, they're driven by it.
