    Power steering

    I've got power steering fluid leaking at every coner ting point on my car. Especially the high pressure side. When you put pressure on the wheel sometimes it just poors out from under the car. I've tighten all the connecting points and still nothing. I know this may be a dumb post just trying to see if anyone has had the same problem and what can I do to fix this issue.

      The rack is fine. I've looked and it's not coming from the rack it's coming from the connecting points on the high pressure side.. Especially were the steering connects to the rack. That connecting point is leaking bad

        Are the crush washers in there or damaged?

          Prolly forgot the crush washers. Just get some copper ones in the right sizes.

          2 washers per banjo bolt. One on either side of the banjo fitting.

            The high pressure line could have a crack in it. Mine did and leaked all over the place. Check the line that goes from the pump to the rack.

              Same with mine. I replaced one line, but then the other went. So replace them all when you do.

                Or you could do a power steering delete. Car steers find with out it.
