[Supras] Power Steering Hose HELP please - follow up

[Brian Walker]

Have you checked the PS reservoir cap? That gasket can get brittle and
the fluid will leak from under the cap. Also the return & supply lines
from the reservoir could be brittle and leaking. Mine leaks a little
fluid (sprays onto accordion hose) but not enough to need refilling
often. The reservoir doesn't hold much fluid. I replaced the cap (Toyota
couldn't order the metal cap so I was given a plastic one, replacement
maybe?) I still see some fluid so I'm thinking one of lines from the
reservoir are leaking slightly.

 

Not sure about the PS high press. Line, I haven't had that apart yet.

Ok, the first two hoses i removed aren't PS lines.

 

I don't know which hose is the high pressure steering hose.  In the
Cygnus Power steering tube diagram, which hose is the high pressure?

 

Now i'm not sure where the ps leak is......all i know is that the ps
fluid needs to be topped up like every day.  The car hasn't been driven
for like a

6 months now and I don't know where the leak is coming from now.
