Re: hard to steer under power
The problem is likely to be torque steer if you don't have power steering. Is this a new setup or a new problem? Are you sure you have the proper size steering wheel? A less likely problem would be lack of grease or worn bushings in the engine mount causing it to bind under pressure. Disconnect the steering arm from the engine and see if the engine turns smoothly. While disconnected, work the steering wheel and make sure the cable operation is smooth. If all that works ok, buy a bigger steering wheel.
