Power Steering Leak
So, today I went to do doughnuts, stand stills, you know the things you do before your about to get new tires. Then my power steering was leaking very bad. It dark out so I cant see were it's leaking from. Anyone have any idea?
When I add more fluid it works fine untile it all leaks out so i think its a hose or some thing like that.

Well I had a leak in my power steering cooler, located in the upper coolant hose. It was leaking power steering fluid into the radiator. However, I believe the power steering coolers only came on the SS and WS6. Check it out, if you have one a part of your upper radiator hose will be aluminum with lines to the power steering pump.
