I figured I would ask here because no dealer or shop I have called has been any help.
Backstory:
My steering rack bushings were pretty much disintegrated when I got the car, and this caused the PS lines to flex on the pump every time the wheels were turned (the whole rack was moving side to side). I discovered it was leaking, and removed the line, put a new o-ring and tightened it back up. It was good up until it got cold in the last week or so. Now it started leaking really badly when its cold at night, no problems when the car is warm and running.
I know its the hard line that is on the right facing the pump, which is not the pressure line (return line?). The problem I'm having is I don't have any idea where it goes, just a vague notion of the hydroboost setup and the dealer is telling me the line that connects to the pump itself is discontinued. I can't see down around there well enough to tell them if they are looking up the right part or not. I really need to get that line fixed, it goes through a quart of fluid in about 2 days.
Can anyone point me at a picture/parts breakdown or something that can tell me the name of the line I want? I'm afraid to call some place like Tousley Ford because I had a local shop order the line when I first discovered it was leaking and after 3 weeks of waiting for it to get shipped it was the wrong one.
