Have one of these guys leaking? (I know I do!)




Here's one type of fix:






***I recommend using high-pressure fuel line clamps, not crappy heater hose clamps as pictured***


The other option is to cut the line and cut the hose - flare the line and then put the hose over it - but this looks better.



I have NOT done this yet on my Lumina's leaky power steering line as my S15 pickup is currently monopolizing my whole shop with my 2.8 to 4.3 drivetrain swap. As soon as I have the chance I will do this and report back (SOFA, wanna try this and take pictures?).

I'm thinking of cutting the line near the underside of the car and running a flexible line up to the top.
