  • leaking in engine bay

    i want to keep my engine bay looking cleaner, two things are really hindering that. the powersteering cap leaks and oil seems to be coming out around the center bolts that hold my valve covers down. what can i do to stop these???

    I have the same problem with powersteering fluid leaking from the cap, maybe its common.

      I have that issue too. How full do you guys have the resevoir?? Overfilling could cause this. It did in my case.

      Another possible fix I was thinking of was maybe finding a proper sized rubber O-ring and setting in the cap.

        power steering

        I've got a little of that too, but also i have leaking coming from one of those p/s hoses so the bottom part is a little greasy and yucky.

        How hard is it to replace a power steering hose?

          mine did it on my brand new 93 and it's doing it on my 95....looks like my master cylinder is a little yucky at the booster as well...


          I have the valve cover issue, also.
