    in short yes. The pump is just like any hydraulic pump, the seals get hard over time and leak. They are fairly easy to remove and check .
    Cheers Scott

    I had both ace and power steering leaks

    I searched and read and purchased some 'Prestone' power steering stop leak.

    the levels on both reservoirs had dropped so I topped them up with this product

    I have no more leaks

    it is a seal conditioner made in USA

    Funny, I was in mildura 2days ago and coming back from Wentworth saw a d2 on the side of the road in company with a motor home. I turned around to see if I could help as he pulled over again.
    The driver explained that his ACE had sprung a big leak and he was continually topping up to get to Mildura.

    Made me glad I don't have it as it would be a disaster for me to have it fail on the Nullarbor or Kimberley.

    Regards Philip A
