fluid leak 95
 
Any one have any ideas on a clear vicious fluid leak at the front of the
engine?

I've chased down the power steering lines and nothing appears to be leaking
or seeping.

The level of the power steering unit really hasn't dropped, added a little
to bring it up to the cold measurement.

I've checked the pressure side of the rack and pinion, nothing, the non
pressurized side, nothing, tightened the clamps under the holding tank for
the fluid, going crazy.

Thanks for any ideas!!!
Ken

Unless you've got one of those fluid based harmonic balancers, there's not
"clear" fluid in the car. Everything is color coded.

It may be water from driving with the A/C running.

If you suspect the leak to be power steering fluid check the ps cooler at the
front of the frame cross memeber.. thats my suggestion..

If you have any question feel free to E-mail me at
I rarely check my account so
don't bother e-mailing that..

Also if you are in the market for any performance parts or stock parts let me
know and I will get you a price on what you need if I carry it..
