High pressure hose from pump to rack leaks a lot of the times.  Just look,
if that much fluid is gushing, shouldn't be hard to find

  Hi all,

  As I backed out of the garage this morning I noticed a rather large puddle
on
  the ground.  I stopped the car and opened the hood to find that I was
about a
  half tank low of pentosin.  In a rush to get to work I restarted the car
and
  continued onward.  Nothing seemed different until the ride home.  As I
  stopped at a light the car was billowing smoke from the front/sides of the
  car.  I pulled into the nearest gas station to find that I had less then a
  quarter tank of Pentosin left.
  I'm not that familiar with the car or the hydraulic system so I'm not sure
  where to start.  Is there a known hose that gives up?  If so, which one.
Any
  help with the cost associated for the part(s) and the difficulty of R&R
would
  be greatly appreciated.

  Thanks In Advance,
