I have looked through the threads of others with power steering leaks coming from the steering box below the steering wheel. The fluid on mine seems to leak from the steering arms, plates on side and air vent at the top. I noticed that one of my side plates was only hand tight and that is an easy fix.
What I did not notice from those threads is what causes the oil to come out the air vent at the top. A tractor supply place told me that if the filter that is located in the power steering pump is full, it could cause the back pressure? Anyone know for sure what causes this to happen?
