In need of help?
I just got my engine rebuilt less than 500 miles ago and I have a power steering leak. I fill the resevoir and minutes later it's empty. Is this a major problem I have to worry about? I was gonna get it fixed asap but I was wondering?
Also the belts under the hood are making a weird noise but they look fine, what could this be?
Last question., When I rev over 5700 rpm the car feels like there is no power and makes another weird noise?
This is the 5th problem I have had with the car since I got the full rebuild done in the last 3 weeks. Do you think my shop is jerking me?
Thanks for any feedback!

The power steering leak is something that you should find soon, because a lack of fluid can burn the pump up. The belts are probably old and need replacing, no biggie. First off, about the revving over 5700 rpm, shouldn't you be more gentle with your new engine? Regardless, what kind of noise is it?

I will replace the belts tommorow and probley the pump as well. The noise I can't describe it like a ringing sound?
My shop told me a couple hundred miles on the new engine til it breaks in?
Thanks for the reply!
