Problem: Power steering fluid dissapears into thin air.

Facts: Fluid is not present anywhere indicating leakage on any hoses, fittings, canister, pump, steering rack, or boots.

Since no leaks are present, and no blowback or splatter is anywhere to be found....... Explain power steering fluid being found on the intake air box at the manifold.

........I told you this was gonna be a good one.

as indicated, NO BLOW BACK anywhere to be found. Dry as a bone.

Bad PS vent solenoid

my car has the same issue but i think mine is farther along/more neglected than olt's.

the vent solenoid sounds like a good bet...

directly in front of the intake beside the airbox. forward about 1.5 ft from the secondary airbox pictured. I'd have suspected blow back, but it would have to go right through the intake tube (in it's way) and it's bone dry.

Too early to tell, but I replaced the PS canister lid to see if the seal might be bad and it be forcing itself out into a crevice that was unable to be found. I'll report in a few days.
