2 Automotive Questions?

I have 2 Questions- Number one is what would be a likely cause of a slow oil leak? about once every week and a half or 2 weeks i have to put a quart in, or the engine starts knocking. I was thinking it could be the valve cover gasket, but i just wanted a second opinion





Number two- How difficult is it to replace a power steering pump and reservoir? The car is an 89 Grand prix. I have a fair amount of automotive ability, but i don't claim to be an expert by any means. I feel like i should be capable of changing the power steering pump, because i can't imagine that there's a whole lot too it, But i just want to make sure of what im getting into before i start ripping parts off of my car haha. So if someone can please tell me what all is involved in power steering pump replacement, i would greatly appreciate it. Thanks! 2 Automotive Questions?Question 1. depending on which engine you have it could be the valve cover/covers gaskets or the intake on the 3.1 engine which is very common.



Question 2. Same as before it depends on the engine size but both are not that hard to change out but you will need a power steering pump pulley remover, the installer comes with the rebuilt pump.
