Powersteering and Exhaust Manifold

[simactive]

For the power steering, mine is leaking from somewhere but i can't really locate it, I have singled it down to the 2 ports leading closest to the front right of the bumper. and also do my eyes deceieve me or does the powersteering line have a miniture intercooler built onto it? yea just replacing the hose im guessing could cure it ig uess? or maybe there is some other parts of it i dunno about.

Also for exhaust. I was going to change it out but im not sure whats legal where. Becuase of the difference in american and Canadian laws, ranging from states to states, province to province. coming around to my point now, all those headers and everything i find on ebay or sites(US) have the 4-2-1 and it looks like the Hi-FLow cats but they mostly say for off-street use or something like that, i know the straight test pipes are illegal but what else? I got the F22A1 i was going to just find the F22A2 exhaust system and transport it over to mine to keep the cost low haha, also i know its legal for now. =D, so many laws and such which confuse me to no beyond.

Since im at it i have a short ram intake that i believe was made for the 92 mustang? would it be possible to fit it into the accord throttle body and mount prop or no? and all those tubes i noticed that lead into the intake don't they need to go back there?

thanks for the help. glad i found this forum.

for powersteering clean any lines for the power steering. then start the car and ask someone to move the wheel left and right while you check those areas.

ask for exhaust system: World Sport 2 is the best also, fsudo is also a really good system for street use.

good luck

Yea, i did that for the problem a couple of times. Nothing happend, it seems like when there is alot of pressure in the lines it sprays from somewhere. I noticed it when i was driving down the highway and hydraulic fluid was coming up my hood and splatted on my windsheild. It sprays on my belts and makes then doing highpitch whines for a bit then it goes away. It seems to do it when im at almost full opposite lock and such. or something of the such.

do you have access to a lift? if so run it on a lift.

damn, my power steering pump just seized dis morning, and im running without power steering..

who needs exercise when u got steering dis heavy?

gonna go get a new repair kit, since the pump is leaking..

Not recommended but somewhat works jack up the car and set em on jack stands. But if its spraying that high up look around the hoses around the pumps. Yes there are cooler lines for the PS running to the front of the car. If you cant tell get some brake clean or something clean off the area well then start it up steer around and see what happens and see if you can find the leak itself.

haha hmmm i could do that but i would prefer to have it since its still working, when the pump dies is another story haha. Powersteering is an added easse to driving hahah. Im slowly repairing the car main parts then i need to do somebody work, i got it last summer. haha.

Also when there is no more ps fluid is starts to make this realy annoying whine sound haha.

[blizzard335]

yeh man..
just got my pump fixed..
turns out that my mechanic (or was it me?) had installed the valve backwards..
blimey.. but now, i need to bleed the system, since i got airpockets in the pipes and also that whining sound..
