Was in traffic today at a red light behind a Ford minivan. Noticed a little bit of white smoke gently blowing away from the pass side front of my car, thought better not be from me, then thought, oh must be the exhaust from that old Ford, and the smoke went away. Green, drove off, then stopped to make a left, waiting for traffic, went to turn the wheel and it was cement, so I cranked the wheel hard with both hands narrowly missing the curb, and parked in a lot. Popped the hood and checked the reservoir, and it was empty. Looked underneith and the guard plate for the rack junction was covered in fluid dripping off. So I get to fix a rusty ol' line so much fuuuuun :rofl: , hooray for me. Not to mention the price of that damn honda ps fluid. Works fine on the highway though, parking lots are a lost cause. :thumbdn:
