Power steering fluid

Post by BRT »

Should you go though this stuff?
Had the Lines replaced about 12mths ago but today the pump started whining, so i put about 200mls in it. I have no signs aof a leak.
so was wondering if this is the norm or if i need to keep checking.
BTW its a 91 GQ 4.2 Petrol.
Cheers :D

Mine leaks lots going to pull it out and put new hoses on it when I get the flex coupling fixed. How much did it cost for the new hoses.

New hoses cost me $100 all up from Enzed I mean Pirtek about 18months ago.
They do about one Nissan pressure line a day (Bayswater.) using your old fittings and a new inline valve.
