sounds like a 240 to me.

make sure if its leaking water or oil

your waterpump seals might have gone bad, thus leaking through the weep hole.

is that expensive to change

there is no rep system so im not giving you a link on how to replace it but the pump only costs 30 bucks . its one of the easier things to replace.

honestly. you sound like dumb.
i wish i could "f'en" neg rep you.
he just wants to know what/how to fix it.

first things first. touch it. and smell it. it should pretty much tell you.
if you still can figure it out. check the color. if you can figure it out then..

sell your car. and buy a huffy

your water pump is not next to your oil pan.. wtf?

oil pan is on the bottom.
water pump is on the front.

take pictures.
you sound like you have no idea what you are talking about.


im guessing its your PS hose, which goes bad all the time on old 240's

isnt that fact that your leaking good? that way you know you have fluids in their respective places.... hooray for no rep, id lift the car evenly and run it, if its slippery like oil, then its prob oil, if it smells sweet like antifreeze then its antifreeze and so on.

on a side note, where can i get an automatic rwd sr20 tranny?

JRas
09-17-2008, 10:12 PM
what color is it? find out where it's coming from get underneath your car with a flashlight and wait

sometimes something leaking runs down some other objects before it drops if you have a lot of grime down their chances are it could get some oil or other debris in it

s13_Angelo

check the power-steering hoses

it will be on the driver side of the engine: check the three hoses for holes or cracks and both connections

like i said before.
sell your car.
get a huffy.
i think they are on sale at walmart.

btw.. i read this thread..if you dont know what ps is. its POWER....STEERING.
if its black/really dark. its probably oil.
if its green. antifreeze
if its redish ps fluid
dark dark red. and smells like shit. trans fluid.

but. i still stand by my first post.

sell it. and buy a huffy. you dont need to have a 240.

you still have to make sure what is leaking, which manifold did you say is it leaking under from? it could be some coolant lines running below the intake, or it could be your freeze plugs cracking under pressure.

look dude if you want to know if its your water pump this is what you do. let your car sit until its cold start it up if nothing leaks let it warm up once the thermostat opens your water pump starts working so if starts leaking once the car warms up a little then you know your water pump is bad. it could just be a gasket but its always better just to change the whole part it is not hard it took me 30 mins good luck tho man. You also do not need to worry about flaming there is no rep anymore so no red bars for you. good luck P.M. me if you need any help =]

You learn about your car by teaching yourself, this forum is not a classroom where you would get hand fed all the information and you take mental notes.

We are not teachers.

This is common shit. Pretty much every modern car has power steering, coolant, oil, tranny, and brake fluid.

If something is covered in oil, and steering sucks, chances are its your power steering pump, or hose, or something else related. Or your car could be leaking oil, and your power steering sucks on an unrelated note.

1. Usernames mean nothing, their are a few people on here who have s13 in their name and have an s14 or sr20 in their user name and they have a KA. And this tool bag changed his pic from a little cartoon to some random s13 while we were trolling him.

I shouldnt have to play detective to figure out the year and model of car. I was directing that comment towards all the losers who dont have the brains to put this info in the subject. It is so damn weak.
