I pulled into my parking spot at work, heard a pop followed by a billow of smoke. Power steering fluid is all over
Hopefully just a hose.
Tworley build
Hopefully just a hose.
I don't see anything obvious, yet. I'll grab more fluid at lunch and see what I can find.
Better there than on the trail. I'm going to guess it's one of the new fittings?
Be cautious about letting the pump run low on fluid.
Just went on a nice afternoon walk and picked up 2 qts.
I'll look at it closely towards the end of the day.
@jjvw happened to be near my office today so he swung by. Didnt take long to find the hose off the steering box was loose. So for those with hydro assist or anticipating hydro assist, keep your caps!
Just got home and took a closer look at things. I thought the hose had backed off, turns out it was the "pop" I heard.
The 1" or so of hose is still in the female portion of the fitting

All I did was point and poke at things
Well, I have learned why my hose burst
I used the wrong hose
I used the wrong hose
That’ll do it!
I don't know what got into me...
