CRAZY Power Steering Leak
In the meantime, we still need to use the car. Since we have cold weather (January in Tennessee) I made the decision to temporarily bypass the cooler and ordered some hoses for later. I cut the hoses in the car and bypassed the cooler entirely. Fired the engine up and it's still spraying like crazy from the same area. Something I'm missing???? I can't see any way that power steering fluid is being routed up to where this sucker is leaking. RealOEM doesn't show anything in there beyond what I can see in the car. TIA, any input is massively appreciated. ***UPDATE*** I let it run until the fluid was near empty, which slowed the flow and allowed me to see it leaking from between the pump and accumulator. In what was a complete cloud of fluid, it was spraying from there to the bottom of the upper rad hose.
