Power steering high pressure line
Hey guys,
ive been dealing with this problem for about 2 months now. Brand new power steering pump and high pressure line. The high pressure line leaks between the line and the fitting. I’ve put 3 new lines on and I can’t seem to figure out the problem.

It's probably not the line.
There is another "O" Ring underneath the nut that seals between that nut and the plastic reservoir housing.
It's not under pressure, but if whom ever rebuilt the new one, may have put the wrong O-Ring in, it may be leaking.
When I rebuilt mine, the kit provided had the wrong O-Ring in it, I went to a hydraulics shop and it's actually a metric O-Ring.
I re-used my old one.
