No... not unless it was installed aftermarket. It goes from the reservoir to the pump, then from the pump to the gearbox.
NO. In most vehicles the brake fluid is different from power steering fluid. It may work for a while, BUT is it worth taking risks with your brakes. Your life may depend on that.
It can be done but it is not worth the trouble as you will have to take the steering rake out and fit a power steering pump and resivoir it is not worth the trouble as you will have to change the rake and fit a steering pump and resivoir
I had a loud noise suddenly coming from my 96 SC400 power steering pump . I removed the old fluid by suctioning out with a hose and replaced the fluid with new dex III. I am happy to report that the noise was gone immediately and has not come back since. This was about 6 months ago. It's worth a try.
the old copper cooler is worth 250
Yes, but the cost of actually doing so will make the conversion not worth while.
Dealer use the tranny cooler lines to completely flush the system. This changes he fluid in the torque converter as well as the transmission. It's worth the extra investment.
For what it's worth: mine is under the power steering fluid canister (left side)as you view the engine from the front. Ford escort, 92/93 European model 1.6 16v? -cz. Raise your hood, my alternator is at the left side on top.
Here the location for the power steering reservoir for a Buick V6 3800 series 2 engine. A picture is worth a thousand words. http://www.photoworks.com/photo-sharing/shareSignin.jsp?shareCode=A4376E1C742&cp=ems_shr_alb_pml&cb=PW_APM
Generally it is not worth the trouble to rebuild a power steering pump, especially since there are so many specialty tools involved. You can purchase a new one for far less than it would cost for you to do it properly yourself.
some people never replace the rack and pinion. It's one of those things that you don't replace unless it NEEDS to be replaced. It's usually expensive, even to do yourself. A good way to keep power steering components from needing to be replaced is to install a magnefine filter in the power steering return line. Google "magnefine power steering filter". It's about $16 and WELL worth the investment!
Sorry for the fatuous answer, but this really is not worth doing! If you must do it, then I would suggest you locate a later model Corsa in a breakers yard, that has PAS and remove the parts required; pulleys, PAS pump, steering rack and piping. Most things are possible as far as vehicle upgrades are concerned, but, as I said, this is not worth it!
Personally, I find that buying the Service manual for 17$ Canadian is totally worth it. I recommend the Chilton manual
