I have a 94 dakota 5.2 ltr v8 4x4. I recently replaced the power steering pump and it worked fine, for a few miles then it quit. I also replaced the pressure line and I have looked everywhere and cannot find any leaks ( none I can find). Going crazy trying to get it to work. I am at my wits end and would greatly appriciate any help or advice.
