I had a power steering pump go bad on my truck, when it runs out of fluid the engine overheats because the power steering fluid drives the cooling fan.

Could be spraying from any of the line fittings even at fan module and causing belt slippage/noise. I'd top it off and have someone slowly turn wheel left to right with truck running. That should show the leak area sir. :rock:

Found the Biatch:rock: an o ring had broken on the blue aluminum fitting, under pressure spraying all over the belt.

Copper washer and Teflon tape. the annoying thing was you couldn't see the leak it was such a fine spray. soaking the belt and taking a week to empty the fluid.

all done and clean:rock:
