Power steering hose help.

maxbolt · Nov 28, 2012

A hose coming from the bottom of the power steering pump appears loose and is leaking fluid.
What is the name of this hose and how do I fix it?
I have two pictures attached pointing to the hose and you can see the space where fluid is leaking from between the hose and the nut it goes into.
Thank you.

there are 2 little teflon seals that you need to replace inside the fitting. they are carried by advance auto and oreillys, dorman 82540 is the part number.
that line is supposed to be able to swivel .
I believe that one of the seals will have to be set in a hot pot of water in order for it to stretch big enough to go over the fitting. just buy 2 packs in case you mess one of them up. they are like 3 bux per pack. g luck

Thank you. that is what I was thinking wasn't sure though.
Do I just undo the bolt the fitting goes into and pull it off to put the seals on?

just unscrew the fitting from the pump body.
