i get into my car afew days ago and notice the power steering is getting kinda bad, so i come home and to my suprize i didnt have fluid...so i re filled it and put in some lucas i think into it, (its supposed to help steering in rough spots). that was last night.....so when i go to my car this morning i discover i have no power steering at all.

is my pump bad or could something else have happened?
to my knowledge there isn't a leak..
 
if you don't have a leak then where would the fluid have gone? Fluid disappearing ='s leak somewhere.
 
under the car there are these big black metal things called the gusset and the right member. when i had a leak, it was actually puddling up in these flat pieces of metal, perhaps look there for your missing fluid?
 
maybe you lost it all on the street and when you came hom since a majority of it was gone and the car had nothin moving the fluid since the car was off it stopped leaking. Fluid doesn't just magically disappear. Unless of course you drove to hogwarts or something. The fluid went somewhere.
 
I had an issue once with my VR-4 where the rack would just throw up at times. Also does you alternator look dirty? PS pump could be leaking on it and will eventually kill it if so
