Leaking power steering oil
William:
hi all, i have a 1985 landrover 90 n/a which runs fabulous apart from one slight thing that im rather fussed with. The power steering oil reserve leaks arond the romovable filler cap, the fit is vert tight and does up a treat, there are no dents in the lid and it isnt bent or mis-shaped in any way. So why does it leak? It doesnt leak alot but it just bugs me. Is there ment to be a seal in the lid as in a rubber seal anywhere? Also the fluid seems a bit weak which makes me wonder whether the oil is a bit dicky? or an air lock possibly? The steering does seem abit to heavy for a power steered landrover any ideas would be appreciated. Any suggestions? x
