    Default HICAS Power Steering Leak

    Alright, I got Hicas pump with 2 pressure hoses, or at least I think it is, since it has 2 of the big Gold Nut things on it. Im guessing, one pressure hose for front, one for rear. I have a huge leak, almost as if one end of the line is open completely. I put fluid in, and it leaks like a mofo out of the FRONT PASSENGER side. Is it just leaking from my pressure hose and traveling down the chassis..or is there a special line going to the passenger side? Could I swap the HICAS lines with regular PS pump and PS lines?

    My black 91 hatch is just sitting there and when it ran the PS was fine. So if I can, I will just take the PS lines from it. So do i need to alter anything to use those lines from a regular hatch into a HICAS Hatch. Time is of the essence cause I need it ready for Cordelle in 2 weeks.

    Any help would be awesome, and if I cant use regular PS pump and Lines, does anyone have the HICAS PS stuff?


    PS: Also, how can I tell if I have solid rear subframe (HICAS elmination) No one ever answered in my last thread!

    i think the first thing i would do is find out exactly were the leak is comming form it might be something more than a line
    You only live once, maybe twice if you use the e-brake!
