Okay, I'm going to keep power steering for now. So, as far as I can tell, the leak is coming from the pump itself. I can get a reman pump for a good price, so that is gonna be my next project. Is there anything that I need to look out for/be careful of when doing this procedure?
Thanks in advance for the input!

Nope, R&R is pretty easy and direct.

Careful with "remanufactured" parts from parts stores; they tend not to work well or last long — and if the brand you're being offered is A1-Cardone, run away and look elsewhere!

if your pump still works fine but just leaks, and the leak is not from the shaft seal, then it's quite likely you can fix the leak without replacing the pump. The pump-to-reservoir seal is a common leak point, not very hard to fix.

Thanks Dan. Actually, my pump works fine, it just leaks, and it needs a new belt.
So, I'll look at getting a replacement seal tonight. I still have my part-time job at O'Reilly Auto Parts.
Thanks again!!!
