I have searched and read a few pages worth of threads, but havent been able to find a solution to my power steering problem. First off, its a 89 BII and the power steering is nice and quiet.
It has started leaking behind the power steering pulley where the pulley shaft enters the pump. I dont see any other leaks anywhere else. Its throwing a thin line of fluid over on to the washer fluid reservoir and up on the underside of the hood, and of course its getting on the steering box thats underneath.
I am curious to see if anyone has just replaced the seal where the shaft enters the pump, or if that's even possible. I read in another thread that adding a small amount of transmission stop leak may swell the seal enough to stop the leak, and I was wanting some opinions from the experts. So what say you?
