O-ring, powersteering line
Had a leak last week and I believe I have found it. Is there a white o-ring on the line that goes into the bushing. If so can I get one at NAPA. Part number would help. I looked for springer pups o-ring list but can't find it. There is nothing left of the o-ring. In fact, I thought it was teflon tape at first but it is hard. Stealership replaced the pump about 2.5 yrs. ago.

Is this on the power booster end of the high pressure line? I just replaced mine line afew months back and you have to be careful not to over torque the nut.. the fitting will still move even after tightening.. I don't have the torque reading handy but someone here will know.. Don't know the size of the o ring, sorry..

Correction to my above post.. "both ends" of the high pressure "line" (not the fittings) should wiggle slightly if installed properly.. The o ring is what seals the oil.. The last guys to install your hose probably over torqued the fittings..

I just replaced the line. Couldn't find an o-ring and can't wait. Thanks for the info. $28.00 and some change. While I had it off I did the foil removal on the intercooler tube.
