I just replaced the return hose power steering pump and pulley and every time I pour power steering fluid into the reservoir it leaks everywhere. I can't figure out where it's leaking, what could be causing that?

Hi,

When you fill the reservoir and it leaks, is it high in the engine compartment or low? Also, double check the hose attached to the reservoir. Make sure it isn't damaged. Also, make sure the reservoir itself isn't leaking.

Let me know.
