Finally got started yesterday, which basicall consisted of a crapload of degreaser and a water hose. I also lubed the doors. So what? I'm always getting off to a slow boring start.
Anyway, I also located the power steering leak. Definitely an issue with one of the hoses, I added some UV dye and used my Dad to stare at it and see that it was pouring out of the line. Also, explained to him that the power steering lines DO NOT go under the exhaust manifold to the back, because it has a gearbox, not a rack.
AND THEN, less than 15 minutes later, after I showed him where the lines went, had to explain to Dad that the power steering lines DO NOT go under the radiator and to the other side. Those are transmission cooler lines.
