And yes, it is PS. My car leaks a lil oil, and its darker then the PS fluid(not by much). I got oil, PS is empty...

woo i diagnosed something.



but be sure to check those p/s lines, if the cooler lines aren't cracked over there then it wouldnt be the p/s causing the fluid everywhere, the p/s system could be leaking form a different spot.



always double check other things.



but if it is the p/s line....i'd give you mine but in orer to remove it i bent it up pretty bad lol.

I did, and the fluid was a light clear brown, so of course I assumed oil cause it felt like oil and KINDA looked like it. Plus I have no PS, so it all adds up.



And by the looks of it, I wont have PS for a long time...**** fixing that ****.







And NO - I wasn't high...(at that time)

remove the p/s it's like 40 minutes of work, and plenty of weight savings.



while you're at it kill the a/c too.



car revs soo much faster without the accessories.

didnt notice the florida part lol.



seriously though all you need is like 3/4", 7/8", 18mm-10mm wrenches and enough strength to bend thin walled tubing.



only taking off p/s maybe a bit harder though as youll actually have to dismount the pump form the pulley, me and frestyle skipped that by removing the whole 50000lbs mounting plate since you need a very thin boxed end wrench or very good open end wrench to get 2 of the 3 bolts holding the p/s pump to the pulley off.



altho one of my teachers told me about electric p/s which im sorta looking into altho its very expensive.
