Power Steering Pump/Reservoir Leak
I've had this issue lately where (randomly) i'll come out to my truck and there will be a nice puddle of PS fluid on the ground. I can go for weeks without it happening again, but it seems to do it when it's colder outside. The backside of the reservoir is coated in fluid, so I can't tell if it's coming from the plastic tank or the pump itself, i'm thinking just the tank.
Anyone else ever run into this? How hard is it to swap just the tank? I don't think the pump would be the source of the leak - I haven't had issues with the pump's operation at all.
