In my 92 Cherokee Lerado my power steering pump heats up and the fluid boils over and you take the cap off and its full of bubbles and really hot fluid. I don't know what to do. Please help

you probably have a leak in your high pressure hose on the drivers side. it is not boiling over it has air in it. it is like taking a water and shaking it up, of coarse it will have bubbles in it. i would drain the whole thing and refill it, then bleed it and see if that works.

x2 on the drain it and refill it.
I would go with a high temp dot 3. the fluid does have to be changed every now and again anyways
