Default Power steering help needed..

I'm at work an the cars on ramps at home so I'm gonna investigate tonight. Pump started groaning today and found a puddle under the car (first one ever) low level in reservior confirmed a gusher. Shut her down for the day.

Is there a connection prone to failing? I'll search later tonight when I get home but thought someone might have some insight.

Sucky Monday for me...

TIA

Default That hose..>>

From the PS pump to the rack is about $240. If it sprung a leak along the metal parts of that hose, it can be repaired. i had one MIG welded and it's been fine since. My leak was caused by an abrasion on a Stainless braided line tough. Hoefully you just have a loose connection..
