Question type: Maintenance & Repair

When driving the car it is very hard to turn. It gets a littler easier to maneuver when i press the gas. The fuel pump is full and i haven't found it to be leaking fluid but, it sat up for a while and when i went to go a crank it to let it run the resivor was empty.

That would be the power steering pump. Most common leak is a hose. It could be leaking from the rack. Have a shop look at it and tell you.
