I know this is a tractor forum but I think the question is the same for a truck or tractor. I have a Dodge 1/2 ton truck. It has been a good truck but it eats power steering pumps. The truck is only used on the highway, not off road.
The latest pump last 3 days, I am sure a bad unit but the five others went out about every 2 years. It loses fluid, it seems out of a "weep" hole and then it of course growls and howls etc.
My question, could an obstruction, kink in a line, a foreign part fall in the reservoir, loose line cause the leakage? Now the shop is going to replace this last one free of charge but it get old for them and me. Any thoughts, I think they are out of ideas? Thanks
