Hi Guys, I have a PAS leak on my Chim which I am hoping to get fixed this week. Its in the usual place just under the PAS pump on the horse shoe shaped bit of metal with two rubber hoses held on with jubilee clips.
My question is where do the other end of the tubes attach to? I presume its the pump and are they also held on with clips?
( cannot tell from above the car)
If they are perished are they something I can get locally or are they main dealer stock?

Thanks

Its a common problem. Mine was held on by double jubilee clips that were so tight I couldnt tighten them any further without damage, but it still leaked.

There is a kit advertised in the classifieds somewhere that uses 'proper' fittings that do away with the jubilee joints either side of the 'U' bend.

Or you could look up your local hose supplier to see if they cuold make up something similar.

I bought a set of new PAS hoses from John Zubak who advertises on PH Classifieds. I am very pleased with mine.
