Power Steering hose question
I'm piecing my car back together (I bought it in pieces, the engine was out when I bought it) and I need a little help reguarding the Power Steering hoses.
Can someone tell me which hose connects to the top recepticle of the Power steering reservoir and where it goes? I do have two lines on the car, one goes from the lower power steering reservoir recepticle to the pump and the other goes from the pump to the rack.
I have one open threaded orifice on my power steering rack. I assume the line I am missing goes from the upper power steering reservoir recepticle to the open orifice but I am not sure which line this would be. Is this the return line? I do have the helms but from the pictures I cannot be 100% sure which line I need.
This is a situation where a parts book would probably be more helpful. I took a picture this evening but I left the cable for my camera at the shop. If the above discription is too vauge I can post pic's tomorrow.
I should note this is a Z51 car, but I did not get the power steering cooler with the car. I would just assume plumb it up like a non-Z51 car so I don't have to buy a OE cooler.
thanks,
