my girl friends daughter has a 93 900s with 130k miles. the steering pump i think went, they were driving and it went all of a sudden, i told them to cut the belt but they were going to a wedding and it was a mess so they drove it 20 miles to get it to me. i see that the pump assembly moves quite a bit back and forth, so i am thinking the pump gasket went and maybe the pump too, havent checked the hoses cause it is so dirty but most of the fluid loss is in the pump area, oh yeah a bolt on the pulley was missing so maybe play cause the gasket to ware to cause the pump to expel fluid, when it lost its fluid it lost it all except what was in the hoses. did i dodge a bullet and just have to change the gasket and pump or do you think the prob is more likely in the hoses?
