The only way to stop a Power Steering leak effectively is to located and repair the leak. This most often occurs at the seals which break down over time and allow fluid to pass by.

Depends on how severe the leak is. If it is a bad leak at the pump, then you more than likely need to replace the pump. If it is leaking severely at a hose, the hose needs replacing. If it is a very minor leak, you can try a PS stop leak, such as Lucas Power Steering Stop Leak. This may or may not stop the leak.

What happens if power steering fluid is not there?

That means you have a leak. Eventually your power steering will fail (no longer have power assist) and your pump will burn up. You can put some power steering fluid plus stop leak (all in one) in it, but I would also recommend that you crawl under the car and look for the leak.

It will most likely fail again. The Lucas just softens and makes the seals expand to help seal the leak. They are usually on temporary.
