Thanks for the responses on the Power Steering Whine on my '87 Westy. It's now clear to me that there should be a restrictor in the hose and/or the hose diameter is perhaps partly responsible. The hose that Ron @ the BusDepot pointed me to is not what I'm looking for (& he does not have what I need). SO: if anyone has a good condition USED power steering hose, please pmail me. The hose is approximately 18 inches long, with a banjo fitting with pressure sensor at one end (to PS pump) and a female compression fitting at the other (to the steel lines to the front of the van). Thanks, Michael Hart '87 Westfalia "T3WESTY" (650) 387-8957 mjhart853@gmail.com |
