power steering
« on: December 01, 2013, 02:46:58 PM »
I want to tighten the ps line on the back of the box without taking the box off.  Is there a special angled wrench available?  What size?  It's an original box on my 69 z

Use a crowfoot line wrench. AKA crowfoot flare nut wrench.

The fitting on the pump is 13/16". I went to Menards and bought a stubby wrench (5") worked good for $9. George

I would strongly reccommend using the proper flare tipped tools when working with the soft flare fittings.

Thanks for the input.  I think it just needs a little turn
