Prestone Power Steering + Stop Leak TESTED!

Testing out Prestone Power Steering Fluid with Stop Leak. I have a leaky power steering pump and wanted to try out this fluid to see if it will actually stop the leak. I am working with a simple drip style leak accumulating about half a tablespoon a day. It's not much but makes a mess on the driveway. I would recommend to anyone that this is a temporary fix.

The best thing I like about this video is that you seem to have a wonderful attitude attitude thanks very much for sharing your findings about that product 👍

Great video, sir! Good thing about old square-bodies is that reman power steering pumps are cheap, and easy to install!

[@osadebembamalu7862]

Used it. The crazy whining noise and the leak from the pump stopped like it was never there before. Saved myself expenses of a new pump and mechanics labour cost.

how long did one bottle last you ?

Very good 👍

Thanks 👍

[@gavenvillarreal1355]

Do we gotta empty the reservoir of steering fluid before putting in the sealant? Or can we just put the sealant in with remaining steering fluid in the reservoir ?

[@MechanicLife]

I just added it to the system.

Este producto funciona cuando es una pequeña fuga y cuanto tarda en actuar y en si que es realmente lo que lo que hace internamente del sistema hidráulico

[@MechanicLife]

Esta fue una pequeña fuga. Todavía está arreglado.

Does the product cause issue during winter compared to non stop leak/original power steering fluid? Thanks

[@MechanicLife]

No issues to date with it in the Montana winters.

[@nealpatricklanuza6297]

Hi. Did you make this as your permanent steering fluid?

[@MechanicLife]

No. I still cycle out the old fluid with new. I just used it as an additive.

[@nealpatricklanuza6297]

@@MechanicLife will try this with my civic

[@Mm01233]

Does it stop the the leak now, its 4 years since you started, did you recommend it

[@MechanicLife]

I ended up replacing about 2 years after that video. I still recommend it for sure.

[@choirchoir9066]

really can overcome leaks?

[@rz-307]

It's work on a Ford F-150 2008 ?

[@MechanicLife]

More than likely.

[@impactzful]

can it hurt if u don’t have a leak?

[@brodude3709]

If you don't have a leak its best to use OEM steering fluid. You can get it at your local dealer of what ever brand car you have.

[@amorricanista8364]

How long did it stop the leak for ?

[@MechanicLife]

Fully it was about 2 days.

[@amorricanista8364]

@@MechanicLife Then did it leak as bad as before?

[@MechanicLife]

Mine totally stopped. There will be some leaks that cant be stopped for sure though. If its small though, that product typically cures it.
