Power Steering Pump Fluid Venting:
I have a classic 1957 Oldsmobile and while driving at highway speeds 65 to 70 mph the power steering fluid vents out large amounts of fluid through the the power steering pump vent bolt which is used to hold on the reserviour cover.
Any ideas why? |

Re: Power Steering Pump Fluid Venting:
Good chance it is overfilled, I assume you are using the proper fluid, which is not modern p/s fluid.

Check it off, preferrably cold.
