Re: power steering
Check the power steering lines and the boot at the end of the rack and pinion. If any fluid comes out of the boot, your rack needs to be replaced.
How many miles?

Re: power steering
I used it too and it doesn't work. I would return it for your money back. He's just trying to sell to make commission.
Matt, how did yours end up turning out?

Re: power steering
yeah, I'm not sure why replacement ones could have issues. Seems like valving was off on mine or something. Just junk.

Re: power steering
Well the leak was from the power steering hose. the mesh around the metal made the metal rust and thus leak. My friend (mechanic) cut the hose from one end to the other and replaced it with rubber transmission hose and clamps so far no problems. as always i love you guys always willing to help
