Hey Frank,

I threw on the O-clamp and few days ago but I'm still
getting a little leakage.

Let me explain : if you look very closely at the top of
these hoses where the hose connects to the reservoir
you will notice that the hose consists of two plys
like bathroom tissue. Here is the strange thing, I am getting
tiny PS fluid bubbles eminating from the middle of the two
plys. I have adjusting the tighteness and I does not seem to
help.

I called a local auto supply and the gent told me that generally the
pressurized PS hose don't last forever. He said they usually
start rotting from the inside out anywheres from 4 years on
depending on your driving habits. He may be right cause as I
feel all around the hose a tar like substance rubs off on my
hand.

If my situation does not jive with everyone else could it be that
whatever shop had my car in the last few years spiked my reservoir with
something. eg water or something else.
