peteretep Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 My power steering liquid is leaking out around where the pinion is, im pretty sure I know where the leak is coming from but how do I do it up?(the giant hex thing) can you even buy them that big?

fuel Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 How much fluid is it using? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peteretep Posted July 8, 2007 Author Share Posted July 8, 2007 its just above the minimum mark now from when we did the engine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuel Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 Oh ok. Spray the area in degreaser and see if it builds up with fluid again quickly and see where exactly it's coming from. Try some power steering stop leak and see if that fixes it, even just temporarily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thminiman Posted July 9, 2007 Share Posted July 9, 2007 now that you've got a thing to undo it with, might aswel clean the whole area up with hose/water blaster and degreaser, undo it fully, mash some thread tape around there/see if theres an o-ring that needs replacing and do it up again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
