Power Steering Line/Hose: Service and Repair


















When either a hose is reinstalled or replaced, the following points are essential:
- Route return and feed hoses in the same position they were in before removal.
- Route return and feed hoses smoothly, avoid sharp bends and chinking.
- After return and feed hoses are installed, check for leaks while the system is being bled. Refer to "Bleeding The Power Steering System."

NOTICE: Do not start the engine with any power steering hose disconnected, or damage to the components could occur.
