Subject:      Power Steering help

I'm a snow bird down here in SW FL and my power steering has sprung a leak.
It appears that the plastic line that goes from side to side on the P/S rack
broke an inch from one of the barbed nipples that it would normally push
onto.



My question is, should oil becoming out of this?  Isn't this a vent to
equalize pressure from side to side?  Is replacing this line a waste of
time?  This is a rebuilt rack that is several years old.



Any words of wisdom much appreciated.
