Thread: Power steering help!!!!!!!!!!

  1. #1

    Power steering help!!!!!!!!!!

    Recently installed a motor in the evo. Power steering worked fine. Then some days later a o-ring blew. Fixed that then another o-ring blew. Fixed that. Ran fine then the fluid started pushing out from the cap.
    Cleaned up the mess an added new fluid, bled the system.
    Still the pump is whining, pushing fluid out of the cap.
    The whining is intermittent. After driving for about 10mins it will stop an come back.
    Please help no idea on what to do next. An definitly don't want to spend the $800 on a new pump.

    If you are experiencing fluid coming out of the cap you might have blockages either in the pump or in the rack and pinion itself.

    Thanks.

    The pump whines with the revs. There's always pressure but the noise is bad. Ill give it another flush to see but any ideas will help.

    Pinched a pipe somewhere on the install?

    Pinched pipe is possible.
    Had no issues for a week after motor install. Then started blowing fluid
