Default 1997 Power Steering Pump Leaking

Hello all,

I noticed a leak recently from the rear side of my power steering pump and have been needing to add some fluid periodically to keep it full. I want to repair this before the pump goes and I have to replace the whole thing. Is it just the o-rings and seals that need to be replaced? Or just the rear one? Or could I get away easy and use stop leak fluid?



Thanks for your help!

Mine is leaking at the exact same spot. I ordered the o-rings at Advance Auto for $23 and will be replacing the ones on the left side.

Stop Leak is generally worthless and causes a headache.

It's just the o-ring I believe. I dissect one before and there's a few o-ring on the inside that you'll need to replace. I got a good non leaking pump from a buddy who totaled his Accord for free, and I have no leaky P/S pump anymore.
