The neighbor woman, on a fixed income, has a Toyota MVP van with a leak (1/2 pint a day) in the rack and pinion. I try to maintain her car, but a replacement r & p costs $445. I've tried the stop leak stuff (two cans) but it didn't work. The leak is where the passenger side rod comes out of the unit. Any suggestions? - saw dust? peanut butter? gum? - besides stick with the truck stuff.
Thanks.

Sorry,
