i have a leak on the front driver side that drips all the way from the the place of the picture to the contorl arm and reaches all the way to the tire. idk whats that or what tubes are there. there is a boot in there that is rip. any help please.
Under that protective plate is the valve for your power steering rack.
There is no boot under that protective plate.
If the boot is ripped it could be that you have a leak in your power steering rack itself… if it is leaking that badly best to get it treplaced ASAP… Check power steering fluid levels. The cost of a new power steering rack will run between $100-150 with a $100 core charge… add mechanic fees to that it will be between 350-500 bucks for the total repair bill.
The main reason for getting this fixed ASAP is that Honda power steering fluid will damage rubber components which is likely why you see that boot torn… if it is on the steering rack it is actually called a “Power Steering Bellows” not a boot… FYI
who neeeds power steering :p…i took mine outt …more shit to worry about less headache without 
i was thinking of that but dont you need power steering fluid for the speed sensor since it uses it?
lol wat?? na bro speed sensor is in the tranny …ive been driving without power steering for 4 years already no problems …
i have a 91 acura integra and the powersteering fluid goes through the speed sensor since it uses it to lubricate the gears inside the speed sensor.lol ive changed mine recently and there are two hoses that has a inflow and outflow of powersteering fluid.
The vss is NOT lubricated by the power-steering fluid…
Our cars only use power steering when driving under 10mph (or 5mph? Can’t recall for sure)… when driving faster, the power steering is inactive. The way the car determines this is by the VSS (mechanical, not ECU-controlled), hence power-steering fluid running through it.
You can loop the VSS lines together, or replace it with a d-series or JDM unit and get rid of the bulky DA VSS all together… that’s what most people do when deleting the powersteering system.

you learn something new everyday.lol this might sound dumb but how would you loop the vss lines together???
Uhh… connect the two vss lines together with one single piece of rubber hose?
Hence ‘loop’. 
how much powersteering fluid should i put in the speedsensor?
Doesn’t take much to fill it up…just put some in until it comes out the other end. Done.
why thank you for explaining it all saves me some typing 
1.387121 oz, to be exact…
