[BigRob]

something happen to my other post....02 grand am 3.4L SFI 6 Cyl...on the bottom of the power steering pump just above the wire herness I see a thin nut...I tried using a wrench but its to thick...Have no room for the wrench to go over the nut...What could be used...The nut Im talking about is where the two lines go into the pump...Here is a link of a pic...Thanks for any help...

are you using a open end wrench or flare nut wrench? can you use a thin vise grip?. The link doesnt work.

While I guess this is possible , I would look closer . I see a lot of grand ams in my shop and its very common for the high pressure hose and the pumps themselfs to leak . take a flashlight and inspect the hose, follow it down to the rack , if its wet , then its leaking . If your not sure I would get another opinion at another shop just to be sure.
