93 XJ......when i cut the wheels for a hard turn, it starts smoking and smells like burnt oil. Obviously it is something with the power steering but no idea where it is coming from. There is no leaking anywhere that i see. Can anyone help

Have you checked the fluid level in the power steering pump?
