HELP! Powersteering Line problem!

Ok stupid me took off the Cam gear cover to get a pic of my Toda adj cam gears. I forgot to put it back on after they wore a hole through my High pressure powersteering line....... It starts at the PS pump and feeds on the passenger side of the car against the cam gear cover. Its about 1" in diameter and closer to the intake mani it is wrapped with a flat plastic cover and goes down the back of the engine to the PS rack. I located one locally from a guy. How do I install this?!?!?!?!?

Simple. Just unbolt it from the pump and likely wherever it should meet up on the steering rack. You will lose fluid, but there wont have pressure. I have yet to pay attention to where that line feeds, but having replaced enough evo clutches I know its a complete PITA working anywhere on the K member.

I'll replace one if someone comes in with one for warranty work

I've seen a pump go bad in one. You might want to just bolt everything back up, make it look stock and see if you can get it covered under warranty.

I have a friend locally who wrecked his car, bought it back to sell and has the $240.00 part for $20.00 for me so I have to go at it alone on this one
