Power Steering Failure

Having power steering problems with my 1996 Seville. It started leaking fluid but the source was not obvious to my mechanic. On the hoist with the steering wheel rotated side to side you would think the leak would be obvious ....so not likely a pressure side of the system?? On the second visit we elected to replace the pump ....which worked fine for about two weeks and now I'm once again losing fluid. Any one had a history of this ? Could I have replaced my pump with one that was about to fail ??

With a dye you don't even need to clean the area. The whole point of using it is that it will show up even over old sludge. The catch is to check for the new dyed fluid a soon as possible. If you hesitate, it will be harder to find the origination point.
