Hi guys. Not overly knowledgable with cars just a bit here and there. Girlfriends mo 6 escort seems to be loosing power steering fluid. Any ideas what I should be looking for and if its something that can be repaired if poss? Not loosing it fast so it can't be a big leak. Tried searching here and google but couldn't find anything. Any help greatly appreciated.

 

if its the actual rack that's leaking & its not leaking alot i suspects it coming past the seals. Ive used this before with excellent results http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1Ltr-Lucas...item3a80dc8167

but you need to look at the pipework & tank first to establish where the leak is coming from

 

That's great thank you. Ill have a gander when she comes home from work and see where the leak is! I may be back!

 

Had a look and it looks like its leaking somewhere around the reservoir so gonna try taking that out and having a look.

 

Found out that there is a leak in the power steering cooler pipe. Any ideas if these are easy to get hold of and are there any other cars that have similar systems? I wondered if a puma one would be similar as I have my old one in the drive that I can take parts from.

Any help as always greatly appreciated guys. Trying to get it done ourselfs if possible

 

any help anyone?

 

Ok then

 

Should be little seals in the joints, if none at Ford try 2nd hand....
