Subject:      Power Steering Hose Leak
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII"


       The high pressure power steering hose leading from the power steering
pump to the pack developed a series of pinhole leaks and needed to be
replaced.  In order to find the least expensive repair possible (the dealer price $225
and it would have to be ordered) I sought out a firm to effect repair on the
hose.  I removed the hose from the van and ground off the crimped sleeves
holding the hose to the fittings on each end.  I went to Godman High Performance
in Memphis and they were able to attach a suitable high pressure hose to the
fittings for 49.00.  This allowed a cost effective and timely repair of the
hose.
