    Recently, I have noticed a long squeal as I turned the wheels while moving slowly. Today it was much harder to turn the steering wheel. through some inspection I have power steering fluid all throughout the engine bay. So i stopped and bought some more with leak Stop poured in while in the parking lot and moved the wheels back and forth a few times and went on my way. I stopped at the gym and came back about an hour later and there was a small puddle under the truck and the reservoir was almost empty. The leak seems to be hitting the belt pulley and spraying the mess but as for the actual leak I haven't been able to find it or figure out if it is a hose or the actual reservoir or the pump. Any help will be appreciated. Video coming and pictures coming.
