'87 740 Power Steering Leak 700

posted by  someone claiming to be Euclidian on  Fri Jun 13 08:55 CST 2003 [RELATED]

I have a 1987 740 with 215,000 miles. The Power Steering Fluid is dripping on the ground. Not fast, but significant as far as causing a mess. My father-in-law wants to kill me. I am having trouble locating the source. It appears to be dripping from the banjo connections at the rack, but the source seems to be higher up the hose, maybe. I was quoted $72 for a high pressure hose, but I would have to preorder it and I don't even know if this is my problem.

What is the best way to identify where this leak is coming from on the Power Steering. Also, if there is a most probable location, please state.

Euclidian
