Mike,

I agree with John, only way is too clean, and then start it up while someone tries turning the wheels. Watch and see where oil comes out first.

Picture shows the hose to to be a Aeroquip 2 wire braid hose. There appears to be some spot about 1/8” from the end of the crimp that looks suspicious. Not sure if it is a cut in the cover, or if it is just some dirt stuck there. When hoses fail that is a common failure point. I would wipe that down first and examine that area closer.

 Only way to find a leak is to wash it spotless first. Otherwise you are just guessing if it is running or spraying.

Sorry if this came through twice, but here's the problem I'm having.
Dealer says it appears to be a power steering hose. I know nothing about
hydraulics but would like to get opinions as to this is a hose failure,
or an o-ring failure. Any help would be appreciated.

Regards,
Mike M
