2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission steering pump

[Berrigan]

This must be the week of the leaks. Last night I saw another one coming from the power steering pump. It looks like a bad seal at the junction of the of the steering pump and vacuum pump. Im thinking there must be 2 seals in there. One for the engine oil on the vacuum pump, and one for the power steering fluid on the ps pump. Any one know and is this going to be a pain to repair? Thanks Bill

If it's engine oil, it's coming from the vac pump. There's a kit to fix it. Member CPFF sells them.

Don't know how much pain? You know the saying, no pain no gain . Here is a link to parts. http://www.partsamerica.com/ProductList.aspx?parttype=23&ptset=A&searchfor=Power+Steering+Pump+Kit and https://www.turbodieselregister.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=69047 bg

If its your vacuum pump it is not hard to replace the seal. the diffcult part is getting the VP off. I removed the SP and VP together. I got my seal kit from Cummins. See my sig for the part no. It cost about $9. 00.
