What kind of power steering fluid should I be using? The staff at AutoZone couldn't tell me. I picked up a quart of yellow prestone.

Already got the part made. But I'll keep that in mind for next time. Thank you

thank you, everyone

Yeah, I found a place that will make one. It's twice the price of buying one from classic industries. I wanted to double check and see if there was a do it yourself route. I'll follow the advice and get it made at the shop. Better than a line potentially failing and better than waiting a month.

Ok, so classic industries is going to take a very long time to send the power steering pressure line. It is out of stock. Auto zone does not have one. This pressure line has a section on either end that is steel (photos above). Is there any reason I cannot replace this line with one that is...

The light ended up turning off.

Thanks for the tip, I'll give them a call and make sure I ordered the right fit.

The second red dot is the same power steering line. It was leaking at two spots; the crack in the rubber and at the hex nut.

Good news! I didn't drive it. (beyond the lap around the block). As far as why I though it would be ok to drive empty, I have no idea. I tend to learn things the hard way. Classic Industries was a great recommendation! Got the part for $30. Waiting for it to arrive. After I install that I have...

Its a 69 273 v8. Thanks for the pointers. I found the part on the auto zone website so I'll be picking it up tomorrow. In preparation I drained all of the power steering fluid. I drove the dart around the block a few times to see how hard it would be without power steering. As I was driving the...

Hello all, I have a power steering leak. The spots with the red dots are where the line is leaking from. I was hoping someone might know what I am looking at and the name of the part. I think it's the power steering fluid return line. What's a good website people use for mopar oem? I can't...

What is a good site everyone uses for parts?

Ok, so it took a lot for me not to delete this thread and pretend this leak thing never happened. (I did delete a few choice, stupid things that I said) But, after reading through the manual, thinking about the situation and what people have said, I realized that in fact, I was pouring oil into...

Think I am getting closer

Maybe the leak from the metal tube is a fitment issue and the rubber needs to be replaced? I had to go double check that I am not pouring in oil where the transmission fluid goes.
