power steering problemsblazinman08 12-14-2007, 10:13 AM i have an 89 s10 blazer and one day the power steering started leaking and i cant figure out where it is leaking from is it possible to crack a power steering pump help please:banghead: MT-2500 12-14-2007, 11:05 AM You need to find where it is leaking first thing. Pressure leak or sitting still leak? For a pressure leak. Clean of old fluid leak and fill it up and start engine and crank wheels right and left and watch for ps fluid to leak out. For a hard to find leak they make a leak dye kit that may help you. MT blazinman08 12-14-2007, 11:24 AM for it to be a pressure leak wouldnt it stop after i shut it off it leaks out from full to empty in prob anout 1 mile so and its coming from underneath the resovior MT-2500 12-14-2007, 12:54 PM If it runs dry in a mile you have a big leak. Does it also leak with engine off? Clean it off and look for where the leak is starting to leak. If you can not see under there a small mirrow may help. Watch front seal and ps hoses and fittings and around the resovior tank. Remember a leak will run down so go to the top of the leak. Good luck MT blazinman08 12-14-2007, 01:27 PM yea it leaks even with the engine off so emm sould it maybe be the seals or hoses MT-2500 12-14-2007, 01:43 PM We can not see it with the key board or pc monitor. You need to have a good look and see where it is leaking. If all else fails take some pictures and post back some pictures or run it by a repair shop and have them take a look at it. Good Luck MT blazinman08 12-14-2007, 02:27 PM and another thing the power steering pump always winds now like its not even getting powersteering fluid MT-2500 12-14-2007, 03:06 PM :grinyes: lOOK AND FIND THE KEAK.:lol: Then we can go from there.
