Power Steering Pump Question
#1

Quick question for you. When I received a new power steering pump it included 3 seals, and I was wondering what they were for. The reason I asked, is because when I removed the pump, I only had one seal on the pressure line. Is there more than one seal for the pressure line, or just the one? I also have a leak at the pressure fitting which is why I was wondering if there should be more than one seal on the pressure line.

Sorry, been out of town for the holidays (still am...
)
But I should have said O-Ring instead of seal (I blame this on the eggnog, apologies
). The reservoir seal failed on the original pump. And there was only 1 o-ring at the tip of the pressure line when I removed the original pump. I was wondering if there should have been a 2nd o-ring in that line since it is leaking from there now.

Old thread, but just wanted to follow up.
Pulled the O-Ring out of the pressure line of the power steering hose, and it was in fact shredded already. So I replaced it, initialized everything, and its running good. I might still have a tiny leak where the pressure line goes into the pump. Might be a defective pump, because the leak appears to be outside the connector. Might see if there's anything I can do that involves not taking it out again, but might not have a choice.
Thanks for all the help :-)
