What causes this? I've also noticed a lack of feel change in the power steering. I'm sure it felt firmer at higher speeds now it just appears constant,

Is it really boiling?
Do you have a leak, is the level low?

unscrew the steering load sensor and drain it....

The stuff you want is ML-5 over the ford parts counter... it's actually automatic transmission fluid
