Does the 1998 Saturn sl2 have power steering?
assuming your vehicle is equipped with powersteering, yes. to find out for sure you will need to open your hood and look in engine compartment. there should be, in the upper left corner of the engine, a small black cap that says... Power Steering on it. it will be sitting ontop of a white colored fluid container. This would be your power steering pump. Twist the black cap and pull upwards. the cap will have a stick fastened to the bottom of it with a fluid level indicator mark. be sure the fluid is up to that mark, or very close to it. if not, you may need to purchase some power steering fluid.
How does an power steering works?
Power steering is used to help the driver turn the wheel. Power steering is powered by a fluid held within the reservoir, where you put the power steering fluid into. Then, the power steering pump takes over. That pumps the steering fluid to the steering gearbox, which flows to the valve body unit (kind of like a crank). Once you turn the wheel to the left or to the right, the computer tells the steering fluid to push against the crank to make the wheels move, taking less stress off the driver. You usually find power steering in bigger vehicles, such as pick up trucks, big rigs, bigger cars, etc. You won't find it in smaller cars because it's already easy to turn.
Why is their power steering fluid on your power steering?
If you have a leak, you need to find the source and repair. Most fluid leaks from hydraulic power steering systems come from one of two hoses, called the pressure hose and the return hose. You can find these hoses by looking at the steering rack. If these are leaking, buy replacements. If on the other hand you're asking why power steering uses fluid at all, it's because hydraulic power steering is - well - hydraulic. Usually, a belt driven by the engine drives a mechanical pump which forces the fluid through a hose (the pressure hose) into the rack. Moving the steering wheel of the car affects how much fluid goes into each side. Fluid then returns to the pump along the return hose. As well as pushing the steering were you point it, the fluid lubricates the moving parts in the rack.

How do I know if my power steering pump went out if my power steering fluid is low or if it is my steering column that is broken?
If you are losing fluid, you need to find out where it is going. Usually it is pretty easy to find most leaks: out of the seals on the pump, out of the lines or cooler, out of the steering gear, or out of the rack and pinion. Sometimes you'll have to poke a small hole in the rubber boot on the rack and watch for fluid coming out. Your steering column wouldn't be the problem. Hope this helps.
Your 2000 Ford Ranger keeps using power steering fluid but the garage said it doesn't have any leaks where is the fluid going?
Let's use some common sense here. If you are loosing power steering fluid, you have a leak. The only other alternative is that someone is stealing you P/S fluid which I doubt is happening. Take your vehicle to another garage run by a professional and have them find the leak as it is obvious this garage is not run by a professional.
