steering wheel is possessed
The suspension is crap, but I doubt that has much to do with it because the problem only occurs when the engine is running. I can be going down the road at 40 mph with the steering pulling EXTREMELY hard to the right and while still moving when I turn the engine off the car straights up on it's own and is easy to steer.
I didn't mean that some thing is wrong with the pump.
I'd like to see how it steers without steering fluid pressure.
Also, this might give you a relief with steering until you will get it fixed. It's too coooooold to mess with a car unless you have a warm place to do so. At least it should go straight on a freeway.
And don't forget that you should flash it with Honda fluid only.

This problem has got to be something with the steering. When the car is in park and sitting still at idle the steering wheel will turn by itself all the way to the right. Then when I turn the engine off the steering will center... engine back on and it goes to the right... engine off, back to the center... all while the car is in park and not moving. This has got to be something with the steering rack and/or power steering assist.
It's not an electrical power steering. There is no fuse.
did you see any wires around it?
The only way you can disable it temporarily or forever is by removing belt from the pump. I just don't remember is there engine mount on a way.

When I am at speed and I turn the car off that is the equivalent of a disabled power steering pump and steering the car without fluid pressure, and it's at that time that the car goes straight without problems. This problem only happens when the engine is running.
