PS pump help ASAP

[Dirk]

I do have a problem with my power steering pump and it would be great if someone could help.
I do have a leak directly at the pump, actually it's the pressure hose which connects to the pump.

That tube or hose sits pretty loose, so I guess it's broken somehow in the input shaft of the pump.
I cant tighten it anymore and I guess if I remove it it'll fall apart.

What I need is just the lower part of the hose.
I know that you can't buy just the lower part, it's a complete hose with the fittings on both ends, but that hose is pretty long and shipping to Germany would be expensive.
So all I want is the side of the hose which will be connected to the pump.
I'll get that part welded to my stock hose.

Can anyone help?
Is there a chance to get a shorter hose form another car?
Would anyone sell his hose because he deleted the pump?

I can't drive my car as it is right now and that sucks.

I took the hose of and everything looks just fine, I just couldn't see a seal ring.
Is it possible they they missed a seal ring when they installed my new engine?

The hose fits loose (almost looks like it could fall out). There is a small white Teflon O-ring that seals the hose end. Get one from the auto parts store as Ford only sells it with the hose.

Where does that seal ring sit exactly?
At the tip of the line?
I can tighten the nut but that pipe is always loose and feels like it'll fall out.

Ford uses a white teflon o-ring on the hose's nut in the "land" by the flats where the wrench does its thing. Is the fluid coming out inside the fitting? if so, get a new hose assy. If it is coming outside of the fitting, try a new o-ring.

The hoses do move some inside the fittings. Ford uses a "quick connect" fitting for assembly at the plant. I have never been able to unhook one with out destroying the hose, and I have been doing front end work at a dealer for 14 years.

Sounds like you need a new pressure hose to me.
