1994 Jeep cherokee sport 4dr 4.0L HO
I will start off by saying the power steering pressure hose was replaced in december.
If I leave my jeep for more than appr. 36 hours with the wheel turned to either side, when I get back in the jeep, I wont have power steering for about half a mile. When the power steering finally kicks back in, it makes a loud thump sound. It also leaks like crazy while it sits with the wheel turned. it usually empties half the tank in a few hours. I haven't been able to find the leak; it's well hidden. My jeep sat for 4 days with the wheel fully turned against the curb, and when I got back home from H20 the Jeep didn't have power steering for 2 days if I remember correctly. I'm not sure what the problem is, and since I live on an 16% grade hill, I'd like to be able to tuck my tire into the curb just incase anything happens.:wstupid:
