How do I check the front seals on my 1988 Nissan pulsar to find out if they need replaced.
I had a tough time turning my car and went to the station where a service attendant put power steering fluid in my car. It took almost a whole bottle but I could steer no problem then 15 min or so later my car started making a sound when I would turn now it makes it as soon as I start it. Its a very loud noise. It had set for a few years and only driven a couple of times so I thought maybe I had cracked the power steering pump.

It's apparent that your power steering system has a leak somewhere. Someone is going to have to visually inspect the system to determine the source of the leak which could be anywhere in the system. The pressure side hose is probably the most common place to have a leak.
