Put the “Power” Back in Steering
with Bar’s Leaks® Power Steering Repair

Two-part formula restores automatic transmission performance

Bar’s Leaks® Power Steering Repair cures most common power steering system problems.

Holly, Mich. (July 12, 2010) — As vehicles age, they may develop a wide range of issues with their power steering systems, from stiff steering to sluggish steering, noise to fluid leaks. Bar’s Leaks® has the solution for the most common power steering fluid-related problems.

The problems:

• Stiff Steering: Hard steering, sluggish “lazy” steering and “morning sickness” (steering feels stiff when the vehicle is started on a cold morning).
• Noise: Whining, grinding and squeal.
• Fluid Loss/Leaks: From gaskets, O-rings and seals.

The solution: The solution: Bar’s Leaks Power Steering Repair (p/n 1600):

• Smoothes out hard steering, reduces sluggish steering and stops morning sickness.
• Quiets squeal and noisy pumps; reduces friction and wear; stabilizes power steering fluid.
• Stops fluid loss and prevents future leaks by conditioning seals and O-rings.

“The common element between all of the power steering components is the fluid,” explains Clay Parks, Bar’s Products vice president of development. “Power steering fluid touches everything inside the pump, gearbox, and rack & pinion. It must lubricate, cool, clean and pressurize in order for the power steering system to function. This is no problem in newer systems, but as a vehicle ages and accumulates more miles, simple power steering fluid alone can’t do the job. Pumps whine, gears develop play, valves stick, seals leak, and the fluid quickly breaks down. We’ve designed Bar’s Leaks Power Steering Repair to address all of these problems and extend the useful life of the power steering system.”

Bar’s Leaks Power Steering Repair comes in a unique dual cavity bottle. It combines the best performance additives for use with all types of power steering fluid, including petroleum, mineral oil and synthetic formulas. Power Steering Repair is sold in case packs of four. One bottle treats two to three quarts of fluid. Like all Bar’s Leaks products, it is made in the USA.
