Power steering leak (1 Viewer)

[peenhead]

Have a '96 FJ80, 190K, just replaced high pressure hose on power steering. After a few days of driving the fluid is low but I can't find a leak. I've had to top off the fluid several times. Any thoughts? Thanks

Must be leaking when turning, and you might no see it? The high pressure hose has the 2 washers on the pump side that are difficult to keep in place for the banjo bolt, I would check that with someone else turning the wheel at the same time

i have heard of them leaking into the engine, check your oil.

Yep, if the front pump seal leaks, will leak into the crankcase, if so time for a pump reseal.
