Just replaced the accessory bushings and power steering hoses on my wife's car.

Removing the pressure hose from the pump was a pain. The natural thing to do was put the pulley face down on the bench and torque the thing off. The fitting in the pump that the hose screws into came off with the hose.

I got everything put back together today and drove the car for an hour. At the end of my drive there was a light spray of power steering fluid on everything in the plane of the pulley.

The fluid level is fine.

Did I ruin a seal in the power steering pump? Do I get to replace the pump now?

This was my first time working on power steering, so hopefully I haven't done something too bad(stupid).

Best,
Spencer
