Well, I learn from my mistakes I guess......I was losing power steering fluid out of the high pressure outlet on my pump. It was coming out between the nut and the steel pipe. So I figured I'd order myself another hose and take the old one out and replace it....well I got the hose and took my master cylinder out to get to the other side of the hose where the gearbox is at and i couldnt get that **** nut loose, so i stripped it....then i decided to just cut the line and get at it with a box wrench...I did that and then I got the nut loose.
It was the wrong dang hose!!!!!! :shock:
I cut my freakin low pressure hose!!!! (The real long one that loops around to the front of the engine).
I got myself another hose, now how the heck am i going to get it in there without contorting it out of whack?
Could I just put a cooler somewhere instead of breaking my arms trying to re-thread this non-bendable hose??????
Any ideas??? I just earned myself an extra 5 hours of work cause I cut the wrong hose......I hate myself right now..... :roll:
You can use some fuel line (easyier to work with), for a week or two while you order in the right hose, but don't leave it on as it will start to swell up from the tranny/PS fluid. When you go to put it on you can support your car with jack stands located under where you would jack the car up per your owners manual and then remove your rear sub frame bolts while keeping a jack under the suframe to let the weight of it down with...
Red brake light is on...i can hear the pump running properly...about for 40 seconds. I have not bled the brakes yet.....would that cause the brake light to stay on?
Thanks for the help
Yes it can cause your break light to come on, the proper brake bleed procedure is located at:
