Re: Please help me identify this engine part!
I agree with Mike. Just fill it up or even overfill it and drive it the 4
miles. The worst that will happen is you destroy the pump, which the shop
will probably try to talk you into replacing anyway, even if an O-Ring would
fix it.

Re: Please help me identify this engine part!
Thank you ALL so much! I will be driving it to the car shop tomorrow.
I'll post the cost of repair and details when it's repaired just in case
there's possibly someone who's interested.
Mike-- I filled it with power steering fluid last night then started it.
I looked underneath and it drips one drop on the ground every 2 seconds.
Irwell-- A few years ago I drove a '74 Ford Capri with no power steering
and steering was a big CHORE!!!.....I tried to always be moving if I
needed to make a turn as turning from a dead stop was a major workout
for the arms!!!
Thank you all!!

Re: Please help me identify this engine part!
That always was the key to turning a non-power steering car. Get moving
before turning the wheel. Of course, those older cars had a higher gear
ratio in the steering box too.
