Last weekend flushed my power steering and it is performing so much better! Today I pulled it out and noticed it leaked in the garage and then again in the driveway (just a bit). When I did the flush I pulled the hex plug out of the pump. I haven’t had a chance to get under and look but I suspect it may be leaking from this plug. Question, should that plug be threaded all the way into the https://100001.onl/ https://1921681254.mx/
pump housing? As I screwed it in I felt like it was going in way deeper than when I removed it so I didn’t bottom it out and threaded it in as deep as I remember it was seated initially. Thanks!
Power steering leak after flush?

If there was washers there they may need replacing. Think some used a type called dowty seal as it’s metal and rubber… it was a while ago I did mine..
