PS Leak which hose?
 
I was wondering which hose this is, I think it is the HP hose since it is clamped connectors right? also ignore the color of the fluid on the cats some moron accidentally put a little ATF fluid in the Power Steering resevoir.:rolleyes:

ATF is supposed to be in the PS resevoir.

TomsSVX 01-31-2006 02:27 PM

Yes Tom is right, the factory calls for Dexetron III AFT in the PS

Isnt Power Steering fluid supposed to be in the Power steering resevoir?

Just for the color difference I believe, otherwise I think they are the same fluid pretty much...IMO

Hmmm well now I dont feel so stupid about putting ATF fluid in my Power steering.. hehe Which PS hose is that that is leaking? High pressure?

TomsSVX 01-31-2006 02:42 PM

yes, that is your high pressure line

Tom

That would be the high pressure hose. I just replaced the return hose, and ut sure didnt look like that, so its got to be the high pressure hose. Look for a recent thread on having this hose re-built rather then replaced. Its supposed to only be about $30 or so, as opposed to a new hose, which is $93 or something.

I went to order the part and I noticed that on 1stsubaru it changes halfway through 92.. On Subaruparts I didnt notice any thing indicating that, I think I need part #7 from this website right?

Part 7 is right, but look into having it rebuilt first, its cheaper. If money isnt a problem, just order it.

That picture was taken near the passenger side firewall if thats what you mean, it is right next to the CV Joint as you can see. If you looking for the actual picture location, it is located in my locker.

I might try a my first writeup with that hose, although it looks pretty self explanitory...:D

What's the difference between part 7 and part 16?
 
They both look the same on the diagrams, except that one is longer. How do I know which one I need?

If your replacing the picture you see there, get part seven, it worked for me I just installed it yesterday. Not too hard to do, just have to feel it out since it is in awkward areas...
