I just put a new steering pump in my truck. I am having problems with a leak where the high pressure line connects to the pump. The hose had a white plastic ring, and I installed the new one that came with the pump. The leak is around the metal end of the steering hose where it goes inside of the brass fitting.
Even with the fitting tight, it still leaks. And, the hose is sort of loose inside of the fitting.
Has something inside the fitting worn out? Do I need to buy a new hose? Or, can I put some sort of goop in there? The white plastic ring seemed pretty useless.
