Can not get it in for the life of me! Damn power steering is in the way. Is there a secret? What am I missing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not much to it really, stuff doesn't fit as well as you'd like, but fits as well as it needs to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a clip that holds it and you undo that, the line spins in the fitting to the pump. Like I said it's been a while and I might have just made all that up.

I'm using a psr 3584 turbo. The GTX front cover is a bit longer so I needed to trim about a inch off the silicone joiner. Still a tight as fit but it's on there now!
