Driving with no power steering fluid, is this bad

[sonnylad]

Can anyone tell me if it's safe to drive with no power steering fluid, as i don't want to cause damage to steering rack.

Currently stuck in Houghton Conquest Beds and need to get back to Watford.

Cheers Russ

No, youll kill your pump, they rely on the fluid to keep em lubricated!! Fill it up ASAP

Especially when the PAS pump, water pump and oil pump are all driven by the same shaft, you really don't want to seize the PAS pump as it could interfere with the other pumps. Best not to risk it..........
