ps hoses

[fordman]

on a bendix box which hose is which. and which hooks to which. is the high pressure hose the with the threaded connections on both ends and the low pressure the one with the hose clamp on the back of the pump? and if so does the high pressure hook to the top or bottom hole of the box? basicly does the where do each hose hook on to the box. which hose goes where. my hose clamp one leaks all the time. the hose clamp isn't enough to keep the connection from leaking i think it may be hooked up wrong. no its not a bad hose or a bad clamp.

the hoses have different size of threads on them so they can only go on one way. and yes the one with the hose clamp is the low pressure, check the nipple on the pump make sure that it isnt cracked or bent not allowing a good seal.

no everything is good. i was just thinking maybe the lines were backwards i haven't looked at it in a long time but i want it to stop leaking.

well hoses are cheeper then a pump so I would replace the hose first. my have a crack on the inside running longways but not all the way through the side allowing the fluid out that way, but if that don't work then I don't know, hard to troubleshoot from the comp.

yea i can get it figured out. i was just thinking maybe the hoses were switched around. i know what you mean about troubleshooting something from your chair. it isn''t that easy.

have you thought about a snagiaw swap?

why the box is fine. it leaks at the pump connection
