97 Lexus power steering leak

GREAT YouTube channel, Scotty. 

You like Toyota, so do I!

BUT I'm in a dilemma. My '97 ES300 with 140k miles is using a lot of power steering fluid. Like a quart every 200 miles. I've tried all the "stop-leak" additives, but it's now a big problem.

Should I get it fixed? Or trade it off? The power steering pump looks like a b_tch to replace.

Power steering pumps are worth replacing, even if you have to pay a shop to do it. Especially with only 140k miles.   You can add dye and see where it’s leaking from. It could just be a hose. If it’s leaking from the steering rack then you might want to consider getting rid of the car.
