no power steering while making right turns on a 2004 Chevy Trailblazer
Turning right from a stopped position is very tough. Although if moving and accelerating while making right turns it is ok.
Power steering fluid is full, but will occasionally have spotting on garage floor.
Not sure what the issue is, is it worth having fixed or getting rid of vehicle. 155K miles

No, there is no abnormal tire wear.
If I'm backing up to the right, it's incredibly hard to turn the wheel. But if I accelerate even just a little bit, the power steering comes back and all is good. Once I stop accelerating, that's when it's hard to make right turns. There has never been any issues turning left, it's weird. All of the fluid levels are good and have never been low.

Did you swap out the PS pump? My '03 just started doing this, difficult to turn, both directions. My local shop told me today they believe it is a rack & pinion assembly issue, and they are giving me an estimate.
Curious if this solved your issue.
Thanks!
