Power Steering Leak
Over the past few months, I have noticed that im leaking power steering fluid everywhere and have to top it off about once a week. The leak is coming from the threaded fitting on the back. I have removed it, inspected it and reinstalled it with teflon tape and it still leaks at the same rate. Is there supposed to be an o-ring in there or something like that. What do yall think?

Re: Power Steering Leak
There is an O ring inside the case that must be leaking. Teflon won't help. You can get a rebuild kit that has all the orings. Follow the first and last steps on this rebuild instructions.
