Getting the Wheeling Fever

Hello my 1989 (first gen) 4runners power steering is using fluid, but I can find no leaks. I can't figure out where its going ,but I have to add fluid about every other day.Its only a few oz but what the heck . Is the power steering fluid going into one of the vac lines that come into a valve at the bottom rear of the pump? <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />

Have you tried steam cleaning the engine bay then monitor to see if you can see any leakage. You have no puddles on the ground?
If somehow it managed to get into the engine through an intake line, a few ounces every other day should be evident by smoke from the tailpipe I would think.
