Yeah, I've made sure to use Honda steering fluid...well, at least one that I've bought at Pep Boys that says it's compatible with Hondas.

I forgot to mention an important tidbit, maybe. This week the a/c in the car was fixed. While my dad was driving it out of the shop's parking lot, the belts to the a/c and power steering flew off.

They might have added power steering fluid...there was grease all over the reservoir. It was a a/c-radiator place, but they would know...agh, I guess maybe they didn't.

Afterward I put another round of conditioner in there to see if it would help a little more, could the system have puked it up cause the seals were already fattened?

Went for an errand today in it, didn't have a chance to sit and look at the drips, but when I came back later it didn't seem to have that reservoir overflow problem this time. I didn't fill the fluid all the way back up to the top though.

I'll try and have a look under. But I'm no car whiz.

Thanks for your time.
