Re: power steering

Check all the lines to your PS pump and resevoir.

You could have just tossed the belt as well, but the puddle makes me think otherwise.

Re: power steering

it could be the boot that is between the tie rods and the rack. get under it and see if one of them has a tear in it or is screwed up somehow. if it is, go to autozone and buy 2 universal boots, the're like 10 bucks a piece.
