It sounds like you have a vacuum leak. Probably the PCV to intake hose.

I don't think the wrong PCV would do that. I'm not even sure if it really matters as long as it fits. I'd be sure to check the vacuum lines for leaks.

As for the PS pump, are you sure your putting the belt on right at the crankshaft pulley? Do you have A/C or just P/S?

In what way does it stick out a bit? Will you lose a belt if you put one on it? Is your crankshaft pulley on all the way?

If anything disconnect the hose from the PCV and plug it with your finger. (That way your intake doesn't have a vacuum leak.) If it stops surging you know what your problem is.
