My fluid leaks slowly during the summer but heavy during the winter.

Good afternoon,

Did you have anyone look for the leak? Any indication at all of fluid at the hoses, pump or the rack?

Can you upload pictures of the pump, rack and hoses for me to view?

No no one has looked and I can look tomorrow. I’ll put some card board down at work so when I am done I can get an estimate of where it’s coming from, and when it’s running I’ll turn the wheel and it doesn’t spray. So I am not sure if it’s the high pressure line it could be from the rack, but I’ll look and I’ll give you the answer. Thank you for your reply as well.
