92 Loyale with 173000 miles.
This past weekend I finally attempted to reseal badly leaking power steering pump. I did not know how to treat a copper gasket inside, so I applied an anaerobic sealant to it, and assembled everything back.
The pump is still leaking and I cannot find the source.
I did not change o-rings, since based on my experience, aftermarket stuff works much worse than the original one.
It looks like the leak is coming from underneath. So I blame the copper gasket. This weekend I plan to take everything apart again, but still want to be sure that I do everything right this time.
Should I replace this gasket with a cardboard or something similar?
Any advice?
Regards,
