![Question](https://www.rx7club.com/images/icons/icon5.gif)
This steel line for the p/s fluid cracked (upper line where it's held by the bracket) last fall. Not wanting to go through the headache of replacing it, I rigged what I thought was a solid patch.
Well, the damn thing's leaking again.![Smilie](https://www.rx7club.com/images/smilies/smile.gif)
So I'm looking at the line. It runs out in front of the oil cooler and then back again in a kind of flat loop. And my first thought is, Why? Does anyone know why it's set up like this? To cool the p/s fluid?![Wink](https://www.rx7club.com/images/smilies/wink.gif)
Could I just cut out the loop and run a connecting piece of either steel or hose to the ends (after flaring them) without causing problems?
