How To Install a Teflon Seal on a High Pressure Line
#ford #repair #howto #teflon #powersteering
In this quick video I demonstrate how to install a new Teflon seal on a high pressure line like a power steering system or similar, using nothing but hot water and your thumb power. Most home mechanics don't have the expensive specialty tool to install the seal, so this is an alternative method.

WOW.. I always wondered what that white ring was for.. ive never seen anything about it with my PS pumps for my jeep xj over the years but today I decided to look it up.. I'm glad I did.
I am just going to have to move to Ashville, for many reasons, but mostly so I can give you a ☎ and get you to tell/teach me how to care for my Jeeps😅 Another handy tip MMM🐾🦊🐺

LOL! I've never worked on a Jeep but my guess is there is a lot of room in the engine compartment which is probably nice. Thanks for watching Foxy!
Wish I would have seen the video before I tried to stretch a NAPA brand seal by using a slightly larger punch to expand it. Hot water May have helped. The Ford dealer didn’t have any seals in stock. Wouldn’t recommend NAPA seals
Thanks for the demonstration! For a split second I thought you had some very weak tea there 😂 be safe.

What would cause it to leak at the center of the nut where the line goes through. Just did installed mine with a new teflon ring and it's extremely slow but I see it getting Shiney in there
Could you do it upside down w/my arm through the frame & 18” off the ground?
The hot water certainly works well. It seems to go on pretty easy once it gets started. Just curious,what was the tool you were using with the hook end and what is it used for?

That was a small Craftsman pick. They have an assortment of sizes. They are really good at pulling seals out of grooves, and other areas where you need to hook onto something small. Thanks for watching Rita!
how do you remove the whole end piece from the hose? is there a tool?

To remove the power steering line, typically a crowfoot wrench would be used. Here's a video where I use this tool to remove the line: kzread.info/dash/bejne/aGxttLyjgs66Zrg.html
