[QUOTE="shovel, post: 1589995, member: 29855"] I've got about 30 miles of mostly in-town driving done and with the control knob at its maximum setting the power assist is still less than the belt driven pump generally delivered at parking lot speeds. It always feels a little less assisted at every speed - there's also an odd little hump of resistance when beginning to demand power from it, like a PID controller catching up to demand. It's trivial and doesn't cause me any concern but it's a different flavor than the belt driven pump. I didn't take note of the control pot's value (is it a 10k? 100k? I have to take it back out of where it's mounted to find out) - I think I like it either all the way up or maybe 90% of the way up. I'll just disconnect the leads from it, measure the resistance with a multimeter and buy a resistor of the appropriate value. All the way clockwise might just mean 0 or infinity ohms which would mean no resistor needed. [/QUOTE]
