--Yes, you could have a pinhole leak in the high pressure line - I had that once in my GTX. Couldn't see it unless someone was cranking the wheel while I looked under the hood. Get someone to help you with that so you can see what's going on.

I guess that is part of the fun LOL figuring out how to fix thing on our cars. At least we can get to them to work on them. That is more than I can say about the new cars. Also remember that the hose itself could be rotting out.

When using a hose I usually use a flaring tool and flare both ends of the pipe. That seems to help stop the leaks. I flare the pipe going into the rad and the line coming from the trans. Just a little extra insurance.

Sent from my iPhoneSometimes when you push the hose to far on they will leak. Have the hose about 1/8 to 1/4 in from the bend then tighten with a good hose clamp and see if that dosen't help. The rad does it have metal lines all the way or a hose on part of it.?

It's not the high pressure line with the fitting...it's just the return hose with the hose clamps...I'm doing this by myself so I can't turn the wheel and watch the pump to see where it's coming from...the part by the hose is real wet so I figure it's coming out the hose. Ima try and push it down further passed the bend and put 2 hose clamps maybe....ugh I hate leaks with a passion...now I noticed a drop of tranny fluid by my radiator...when will it end!?!?! :(
Sent from my iPhone--Did you put teflon tape on the fitting before you installed it.??

I've been dealing with a super aggravating leak on my power steering. The low pressure line that runs to the box was leaking on both sides. Replaced hose, hose clamped it back...filled fluid...took a drive and the leak stopped on one end but where it connects to pump is still leaking bad....I just can't get it to stop. I think it's coming out as I'm driving an getting on frame making me think I have a oil pan leak. Any suggestions? I don't wanna burn up my box or pump...just can't enjoy the damn thing lol
