Just worked out how to go to topics I started for replies. Der !!!!! Laugh at this. Changed alt HP hose. Little wet still.just recent I unbolted and nipped up tested now frothing and noise half way thru test .didn't touch hose shouldn't be bleed issue, bled it anyway. Still same. The bolt issue shhhh keep this to yourself. Late nite alcohol dropped bolts undoing pump, putting back together peared in thru pulley with fogy eyes seen 4holes sh*t I've lost bolt only have 3. Two days later after feeling my babi up every nook pulled everything I could off realised one hole had no thread wasn't even attached to bracket. Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhsh*tshhhhhhhhhj. I am new Ford man ex Expensive Daewoo training as I go. Now can do with eyes shut Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is new hose and seal that came with it , only tightened week or so after fitting . Could it be pump not hose . Have I over tightened , was sure I didn't.did notice OEM o ring seemed half the size of old one on old hose. Pumps original oem/2014 ????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Went to buy O ring Ford parts Springwood convinced me it's hose not O ring. When I replaced it couldn't work out what he meant could only see that O ring could fail not alloy connection. Was I dupped 270 ?????? So now could only think it's pump fitting for hose or I've over tightened or O ring being very skinny compared to old thick one . Maybe I didn't oil O ring , ship someone help me before I reply to my own topic again . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
