Power Steering Problem

RE: Power Steering Problem
Theres 2 lines at the PS pump, they are both power steering fluid.
The suction side of the pump connects to the PS fluid reservoir, that one is not pressurized.
It sounds like youre talking aboutthe pressure-side of the pump - that hose disappearsdown towards the steering rack.
I think that hose has an O-ring seal. So get a NEW O-ring & clean out the grooves where the O-ring seats. Inspect the surfaces for scratches, where the O-ring bears against any surfaces. Over-tightening the bolts will NOT help AT ALL.

RE: Power Steering Problem
It is leaking where JimBlake says. It leaks from the pressure side. When the car is running it leaks, when it is not running it doesn't. It leaks where the line goes into the pump. I am going to try to get a new o ring for it. I hope that the auto stores sale them. I might have to go the Honda dealer for it.
