I am having trouble using the Google search. Apparently there is a thread on here on how to remove and clean the power steering filter/screen. Apparently there is one on the steering rack and one near the reservoir?

I need to check that on mine and see if it will help at all, because, oh boy its leaking heavily now! I have to pour fluid in every 3 or 4 days now and its now leaving puddles where I park it. :( The pump is also now making a whining sound more often, as it gets low on fluid often now. Oh well maybe one of these days I can afford a pump and have it installed.

90LS400Lexus, You want to have that leak looked at right away. If it's leaking from the pump, it may be leaking on your alternator (as it can do), you'll also be doing an alternator job.

One thing to consider is a alternator shield:
