I bought my '87 9k Turbo earlier in the summer. I've spent the last few weeks working on the clutch and I' almost done. Now for the next problem.
When I first bought the car there were problems with the power steering - namely that it took lots of power to steer the car at low speed. I bought the haynes Manual and somehow got iit in my head that I was supposed to put brake fluid into the power steering fluid reservoir. 2 liters of fluid later (it all leaked out) I realize that power steering fluid was in fact appropriate.
WHat do I do now? I'm thinking about flushing the sytem with lots and lots of power steering fluid and using Bar's leaks to take car of the leaks (are there any other uses:) ) I'm wondering if anybody has ever dealt with a similar problem.
WHere do power steering systems leak. One other note, I know from a mechanic that the PS rack is probably ok.
