Thank you man. I have to do this tomorrow and the first video was just film of a guy doing it. ?????
You’re detailed explanations are invaluable. You’re a good teacher.
Im a great handyman and can fix anything but im a piss poor teacher. I have done a great disservice to the young men that have worked with me. If they have picked anything up watching me then the credit is all theirs. I guess what im saying is that your skills in relating what you know is as important as what you know. Maybe more. So not just thanks for the info. Thanks on behalf of everyone who will benefit from your ability to pass it on. That’s a whole nuther level of skill. 👍
Thank you so much. I hope all goes well!
3.5 is such a good engine, will look much better without that leak now
They are solid, thanks for watching!
Man you clarify my thoughts, I’m actually changing it my self, very helpful
Thank you!
I just did this on a 2009. It was a PITA. I used his tool set up. Worst part is getting the new flare nut started and hoping you don't have it cross threaded. Once you get the threads started, remount the bracket while the hard line is still loose. I had to remove the pressure switch to allow clearance for the flare nut to line up true. Then i reinstalled the pressure switch. Such a PITA.
I agree with everything you said, there are bigger jobs I would rather do, if you don't have a lift like almost everybody, you have to lay on the ground under the thing, get oil all over your arms since it's probably leaking oil and definitely leaking power steering fluid. Thanks for watching!
@@RiggsGarage i accidentally laid my head in power steering fluid while under the car 🙄. 2 trips to harbor freight cause i didn't have the right tools available, and i also screwed around with removing the air box/throttle body hose to try to come in from the top. Waste of time. Honestly, if i had to do the job again, it would probably take 30 mins to an hour. Your vid helped a lot. Thanks a million!
@@Chris-5446 Sounds like most car jobs LOL
You're welcome!
Thank you so much for this video! It was immensely helpful. I had to cut the old power steering line too and I never would have thought to use that tool. It was a fun process; thank you for the valuable guidance.
Glad to hear it went well for you. Cutting it is the easiest way I think. Thanks for watching!
best video by far on this process. I was about to take it to the shop but I after this video i think i can do it. Thank you! And thanks for the link to the Part! I almost spent 3 times as much!!
Great to hear, thanks for watching and commenting!
Thank for your video very clear and detailed I saved couple $$$ I did it by myself
Good stuff! Thank you
Thanks.
Very welcome 👍
Thanks for the video--best one I've seen. Doing this today. Wish me luck lol.
Good luck! Way better than paying a bunch for it.
@@RiggsGarage Done. It wasn't too bad. I started the day at Harbor Freight getting a set of metric Crowsfoot wrenches, which worked. I was able to reach the flare nut from above with both hands which helped. (I have long arms). I did it in my driveway with jackstands and bolting the line from the bottom was tough but doable. I used an awl to line up the hole since I couldn't see it. I also took my chances with the cheaper (by highly rated) part from amazon. I got the Sunsong 3401200 part which was a few bucks more than the one you got, but still cheap. So far so good. I will update here if it fails.
@@nathangreene2626 Glad to hear it all worked out!
Great video on this repair. I have to do mine now. They all seem to leak right past the crimp by the pump. It lasted 157,000 miles!
Good luck, and thank you!
I would have cross threaded that fitting...LOL Great video!
😂 yeah, easy to do!
Yes !! I had to cut the line. I had to put a bare hacksaw blade in the jaws of a "Vice Grip" to make small sawing motions. Whoever designed this was truly EVIL
хороший видос 👍
Excellent. I did this once but the clearance under the van is a killer.
Thanks, That clearance makes what seems an easy job much more cumbersome (and likely dirty since there's probably power steering fluid everywhere)
I actually had success loosening up the nut with a the crow’s foot wrench ratchet setup, actually backed it out two turns which was far enough to get it out easily compared to a regular small line wrench
Excellent, I wish this one did that for me haha, thanks for watching!
Thank you! Had to cut the line to get a socket on it. Not sure how long it would have taken to try that. PITA to get to either way, and power steering fluid everywhere.
This was a "shower with dawn dish soap" night for me 😂 got really dirty
How many bottles of honda power steering fluid is needed at the end to fill the system back up, assuming it was at the max fill line to start with?
THanks for the video. I wish I watch your video before starting the project. It took me 3 hrs trying to get the nut loosening with regular wrench. For the sensor's o-ring, can you order from Honda dealer? Does the one you bought from Amazon fit well ((any leak now?)?When you tighten the flare nut with the crow feet tool, how tight should you do? Can you do it with the crow feet set?
You can use any o-ring that fits, no leaks for us. I have an o-ring kit that is metric and found one in there I believe. Tighten the flare tight, I don't have a specific torque specification but if you don't get it tight enough it will leak and you will know. Just be careful not to round off the fitting. I would use a flare wrench not the crow feet.
@@RiggsGarage I have problem threading the flare nut in using the hand as you recommend. I was able to thread in about 1/2 to 1 turn and it get tight that I cannot thread further with my hand. I then ried to use the crow feet with my hand for more leverage but it falls off the thread or too tight that I don't want to force it. Maybe I didn't align correctly despite made different small adjustments. Any tips for aligning? In your video, you use the crow feet to tighten the flare nut. Why do you recommend the flare wrench? The flare wrench is difficult and not much room to use.
@@paulng2455 The line with the flare has to be a line perfectly for the threads to match, That's why it's not going in easily, definitely do not try to force it or there will be cross threads
I need parts power steering hose
Send me the link for part
Do you think I could use some large snips to cut the line instead of the pipe cutter?
Maybe, depends on how large and if they fit. Also some hack saw may fit in there as well
I may try my buzz saw! Should cut it cleaner than a sawzall
Dude you saved me a hell of a time. Thanks for the awesome video!
@@shanerockers9326 Glad it worked out for you, thanks for letting me know!
Just break it off if anything
Where did the pressure hose come from
I think I got it from RockAuto or O'Reilly, I don't remember.
Hows the hose lasted so far??
Was good until I sold the van, so 6 months or so. Now I have another Odyssey, hopefully I don't have to do it again haha
Not a car sir!
Indeed!
