PS Line R&R - help
As part of my 87S WIWIT I wanted to renew the PS lines where possible.
I ordered the resevoir to pump line form pelican _ it flares at the resevoir. Does anyone know of a way to renew the return line to the resevoir? it looked like a straight line from the cooling coil to the resevoir so I cut off the old line and tried a piece of tranny line from the FLAPS. Well there is apparently a flare involved in this line too and the SAE dimension line is a little too big and leaks at the coil fitting. drip drip drip..........messes up an otherwise fairly orderly job.............. Advice mucho appreciated....................................... ................. |

Go to a hydraulic repair shop (where heavy equipment gets fixed) and find some metric dimension hose.

Okay I think I see what I was doing wrong. It's a 10 millimeter line and I was using three eighths inch line which is 9.5 millimeter. It should have worked without leaking however I was using a large clamp and it was not ceiling up evenly. I replaced it with a much smaller barrel clamp and it seems to be ceiling now.
