How-to and Reviews
It says conditions seals, the way that was leaking he needed to squirt it out the window as he drove around because that's where his seals are.
Had a blown line, power steering died from being dry, replaced both… still had a leak, felt so defeated, had to have been a seal from the rack maybe from running dry, was a good amount too, foot by 6 inch spot on the pavement in half a day tops, decided to grab this as a Hail Mary and my god it worked phenomenally almost instantly, was not expecting much, very impressed.
Awesome! Glad it worked!
The rack ends were leaking in my 99 Grand Vitara...used 1 bottle... I was amazed at how well it worked... haven't topped it up in 10 months and its going great ..not leaking a drip and steering is fine....guess its luck of the draw??
Nice! Glad it worked for you! Thanks for sharing!
Realistic and honest video which I appreciate a lot. I know in your case, the Lucas
did not stop the leak, as you had to replace the seals. They were likely old and dried.
You did not mention if it stopped the "whining noise" when you turn your steering
wheel, which I have a pretty strong whining noise, that I first want to fix. It's whining
or howling for a reason, and likely it's because there's very little power steering fluid
in the system. ( reservoir) So, did your noise go away ? I don't know if mine is leaking
as there's still snow on the ground where I live -- but I'll check that. Maybe I'll have
to do what you did, and replace the seals.
I have a 2001 Olds Aurora ( rare car) with only 54,000 miles on it, in great condition,
so I would think the pump would be OK, as long as it has fluid in there, as the fluid
also prevents the pump from overheating, and seizing up. --- just like a fuel pump
that keeps cool submerged in gasoline. I blew a fuel pump, by running on just about
an empty tank, and learned the hard, "expensive" way.
So, I have to start somewhere, I have good steering, really good, but a howling noise
coming from somewhere, and it's likely from the power steering pump. So can I ask
you, did you have this kind of noise ? and did the Lucas stop the noise problem ?
Can you let me know ? -- really enjoyed your Video -- good clear presentation.
Note -- I should add, I've seen quite a few videos now, and some say it works great,
and others not so much, so I don't know what to believe ?
I remember the Aurora when it was new. Nice car. Amazing that yours only has 54K miles.
Unfortunately, I don’t remember if the stop leak eliminated the whining sound. I was focused on the leak.
If yours is not leaking, I recommend doing a fluid change. I recently had an Impala that was whining, but not leaking, and it functions perfect after a fluid change. Otherwise, if it is leaking, you could try the stop leak. The next step would be replacing the leaking item.

@@HowtoandReviewsOfficial Thanks for the quick reply, and I just got
back from the auto supply place, and I put the Lucas in right there in
the parking lot, and believe it or not in about 10 minutes driving the
howling was 80 % "gone" which made me very happy, coz it was loud.
Before I went there, I checked my reservoir, and it was almost empty,
so this is what was causing the whining sound. When I got home I
could see the leak marks in the snow, which is now melting fast. So,
the next step is to find out if it will continue to leak, or if this Lucas stuff
actually will fix the leak. I'm hoping to get off lucky, but if it's leaking I
know a guy that will change the seals etc for a low cost. Right now
I'm starting to think it just may seal the leak, as that stuff is thick, and
I'm sure it has chemicals that will bring back the rubber seals to life,
so I guess time will tell on this. Thanks from -- Canada :)
@@grantp4022 BlueDevil from Canadian Tire is the only thing that might work and if it does its usually permanent. Lucas tends to make the steering wheel lock up or make it harder to steer in very cold weather. Both cost the same $18.99 at Canadian Tire. Lucas tends to just make leaks leak slower but never fix them. Bluedevil is like a liquid but works great on seals.
I used Lucas power steering stop leake put it in about 2 or 3 yrs ago worked on 96 cutlass .now have oil leaking seen oil.on ground after running car about 30 min in feels like 23 degrees saw spot later in day I'm going to try at205 .maybe buy Lucas stop leake too .
Thank you for sharing, I appreciate your honest review. I also used this product and did not work for me.
Thanks, I appreciate it! Thanks for watching!
My gearbox was leaking like this from the input shaft seal on my XJ. It was dripping like yours. Had to top it off every day. This stuff got the leak to slow substantially. It’s not a fix but it does work. Took about 60 miles to slow the leak. Another 60 miles to reduce it to a couple drops. Now I only top it off once a week instead of every day.
Not a long term fix, but a significant improvement and worth a try.
Damn dude u better off getting it fixed honestly sound like you got a bigger problem than a leak
@@psylentsage The seal is blown, that’s a definite. It’s not my daily so I’m not driving it locally. Just the odd snow storm or so. But yes, the gear box needs the seals replaced. Probably just easier replacing the gear box. It’s just a matter of finding a reman’d that’s not complete junk.
I think that this product is more convenient when the loss is minimal and it involves steering racks with internal retainers that cannot be removed without disassembling the steering and using special tools.
It is a fairly expensive repair in a workshop.
Tried Lucas Power Steering Stop Leak on a leak in my 1999 Lexus ES 300 and, like your situation, it didn't work. The one thing you left out of your video is the refund procedure and result. Did Lucas actually come through on their product guarantee and refund your purchase price?
Thanks for sharing.
I did call Lucas about the guarantee and refund. They said they stand behind their product and to mail the original receipt and piece of paper with my contact information (name, address, phone number) to their corporate office. Then, I would receive a refund check in the mail in 6 to 8 weeks.
I mailed it to them about 5 weeks ago. I have not received a check yet. I honestly forgot about it.
I will let you know when I receive it.
I received the refund in the mail today. It was a personal check from Lucas to me.
This is a good and fair review. I like how you acknowledged the age of the parts and in some cases they "DO" need replacing.
Thank you want to tray my Toyota Corolla sr5 coupe 1987 to see staring leaking the tie rod hot insai the boot got don't no sure it the boot it broke post likings o no it put new boot maby stop leaking thank you video
Glad you enjoyed it!
That leak is way too much
Thanks for showing how easy to install new seal !
Could i use this in a differential. I have a leak in the pinion seal wonder if i could put this stuff in ???
Their heavy duty oil stabilizer slows leaks. It can be used in a differential when mixed 50/50.

Can I use this on 1.4 turbo chevy cruze? Thank in advance
The bottle says it’s compatible with all power steering fluids, so I would say yes. I recommend calling Lucas if you have any specific concerns.
Have a leak in rack and pinion and boot will Lucas stop it
I think it’s worth a try. You get your money back if it doesn’t work. You have to mail the receipt to Lucas, and you get a refund check in the mail several weeks later.
I have a leak in my power steering in my.....RV... I PUT IN STOP LEAK... AND I'M TEMPTED TO PUT MY LUCAS... OIL.... WHAT DO YOU THINK.... GETTING FUSTRATED..
I personally think it’s worth a try. If it doesn’t work, it was an inexpensive to try, or you could even get a refund if you want to go through the effort.
It didnt work for my 96 honda odyssey :( . Maybe I should try a second bottle? Power steering fluid for my van is like 14 bucks a bottle so this is pretty annoying
Dang. Sounds like a second bottle is worth a try.
Garanteed to pay for the bottle
Why’d you take out the old power steering
Is 12oz (355ml) of Lucas power steering stop leak enough for Audi Q7 2012?
The instructions say “one or two bottles… usually one bottle”
You could try one bottle. And if it helps but doesn’t quite stop the leak, maybe try a second bottle.
Apa itu benar? Its really?
Can it hurt the steering pump?
The bottle says it's safe. They also recommend using it regularly, even if there are no leaks, to condition the seals.
@@HowtoandReviewsOfficial Thanks. Just seeing how thick it is has me questioning the potential extra strain on the pump.
I mean when the leak is that bad, you were asking for a complete miracle. I cant believe it was able to slow it down. Are you sure the actual seals were still intact? Jokes.
Lol
The youtube cops on my tail so to speak. Now instead of encrypting the logistical meanings I’ve chosen to tell total lies instead. I was really born a talking bottle. I like using all the Lucas stop leak products on my cars I test drive before I buy them. The forefront is now my sig file.
This guy can’t be real
I’m a ghost 👻
Why? He is giving an honest review on a older car which is great. This was very helpful.
How can I get that thing to remove the fluid ?
A couple typical hand pump options are below. I have not used any of these specific brands of products. They are just examples. I got mine from a local store years ago.

I just use a turkey baster. Sometimes have to put a hose on it to reach.
Educational is simple repair of seals ! Cheers !

Awesome! Glad it’s been helpful!
No it does NOT STOP LEAKS!

3 days or 200 miles before it starts working.
Hi
Pls where can l get Lucas Power steering stop leak to in Ghana?
Unfortunately, I do not know. You can contact Lucas oil and ask where the nearest distributor is. I hope you find it!
Best video !!! From test lucas !!!
Appreciate it! Hope it helped!
How hard is to understand products like this will not work on really big leaks like this... ... this product will also not work on round seals around steering shaft for example, because they constantly move it's more for leaks around houses and leaks where you have gaskets....
The solution in this case was always to replace the seal. But I figured it was worth performing the test while I had the opportunity. T video will help someone out.
@@HowtoandReviewsOfficial oh yes definitely. Thank you for the video. !
Excellent demo
Thanks, I appreciate it! Thanks for watching!
Thank you
Thanks for watching!
Very good.
Thanks, I appreciate it! Thanks for watching!
Lucas power steering stop leak is a waste of money I brought two bottles.
Wow the stuff really worked and you also have an affiliate link in the description. This is probably a really trustworthy review. if I use your link will you receive any compensation? Maybe the product works maybe it doesn't. if you're trying to push this product and make a few bucks I get it but maybe try not to make the video so generic and obvious.
Edit, I stand corrected this is a real review and definitely an honest review. I can admit when I'm wrong I apologize for the negative comment. In the end of the video the product did not work. In my haste to pass judgment I did not take the time to watch it till the end. I was wrong. Sorry sir I will be subscribing to your channel thank you for the great content.
I don’t think you actually watched the video, because this product did NOT work for me. It failed miserably and I ended up replacing the seals.
All of my reviews are 100% honest. I purchase every product with my own money, I am not sponsored, and I show the results; good or bad.
I am not trying to push this product. I care 0% if someone purchases it or not. Just sharing my results to help people out in their decision making.
Yes, I share affiliate links. It is clearly stated on my channel description page and in the description of every single video. I post a lot of Amazon links, so it would be foolish of me not to use affiliate links.
Thanks for watching, and good luck.
Thanks for the edit/update. I appreciate it, and no offense taken. Welcome to the channel! I post a variety of how-to and product review videos. Some are planned and some things just pop up. I try to make a video if I think might help someone out. I hope you find some of them helpful or entertaining!
Bluedevil is the only thing that works as long as there's no small holes in metal or hoses.
