Is there a problem with my power steering?
I have had a Power steering leak for quite some time, it was a slow leak so I just kept adding every couple of months. This past winter it turned into a big leak, I would top it off go for a drive and it would be low. OK I guess it’s time to fix it. I pull it in the garage and start looking.

Where does the pressure line go on a power steering?
The return line breaks through the seal but the pressure line does not go in the port. The return line seats nicely, but the pressure line would go just up to the o-ring. I took the lines apart and tried to insert just the pressure line, using a flat screw driver I was able to get it in a bit more but still not all the way.
