Default power steering issue

So my dads 93 accord has been going through power steering fluid every few days and there's no leak and i haven't gotten a look at it. Does anyone know what the problem could be if its not leaking the fluid ??

On my 94 accord my boot busted on the steering rack. Places like advance auto parts sell dye to put into your fluid to find leaks in your lines or the pump. I've never tried it personally though.

It's prolly leaking out from the rack N pinion and into the power steering's bellows boot. Poke a hole in the boot.
