Hi, I have a leaking power steering pump on my 97 Taurus. Does anyone have any idea what the cost is (on average) to replace one of these? Also, do any of those power steering fluid sealers really work? Thanks...
Where is it leaking? It makes a difference. Could be the pump or the hoses. You might want to spray it all down with engine degreaser and see where the fresh fluid is before doing anything. Sealer won't help much if its what i think it is.

If the pump leaks but works fine otherwise all it needs is a seal kit. They run about $10 Bob
If the whole pump is bad what do they charge to change them?
Thanks...
I Had to replace the pump on my '96 3.0 ohv v6 Taurus wagon. The the pump its self I found in a salvage yard for $40. And spent a hell of a lot of time taking things off to put it on. Belt, pulleys, Alt.,overflow bottle, and lots of bolts. A good way to kill a Saturday. It did come in handy to learn how to do this for when the water pump dies. Right now I have a busted line stearing line from a little off road driving. That might run $100-200 to replace at a shop with a lift. The sealer stuff is only good for small leaks.
it will run you about $ 88.00 for the pump its better to go to a junk yard and find agood used one.
And how do you tell a good used one from a bad used one? Bob
