Have the repair shop check the suction hose from the reservoir.

Has anyone had a problem with the power steering hose leaking or failing? I had a severe leak, took my 750 IL in and they said it was a hole in the ps hose. They replaced the hose ($40 labor, $250 for the part!)Two weeks later and I have ps fluid all over the place again. Any ideas? Also, I know a V-12 750 is going to drink a lot of gas. But my 750's thirst seems excessive. I notice a strong smell of gas when I am at at idle and the engine seems to be running a little rough. Is this typical of 750's? Does the 750 have be kept in constant tune to avoid inefficient gas consumption? Is there something wrong with the injectors? Thanks in advance for you help. KA Seiwell
