Z204 Power Steering Leak
 
Hi,
I have a 1998 Z204 Jubilee that has developed a power steering fluid leak. I topped off with Dexon and I can see traces of red in the bilge after running it for 15-20 minutes. I am almost 100% positive that the hoses have never been replaced on this - I am the 2nd owner and have had it now for 15 years. Does anyone have experience of what I could check first to start to eliminate things? I would like to replace the hoses - but was wondering if anyone can tell me any specifics - how many hoses? What approximate lengths? Any part numbers so that I can go get replacements? Any help is greatly appreciated!! I believe the engine is the 4.3L Alpha

I have 4.3 Merc in 1993 MX19, I develope a PS leak every year or 2, same thing every time...loose hose clamp somewhere, usually mine leaks at the PS cooler. Never had a hose issue and I always have older boats.
