Default Re: Power steering reservoir to pump O-ring

The pressure on the O-rings makes for a snug fit on the nipple and the reservoir. Hope this helps.
So you have no more PS leakage? Am I correct that the O-rings go into the reservoir with the C-clip to the "right"/away from the reservoir? At first I slid the O-ring onto the PS nipple with the C-clip to the "left" of the o-ring and of course it leaked. Im will update as I get some miles on the car. Thanks for the advice should I need to remove the reservoir again as I have a set of o-rings here! Mark
