What is this? HELP!!!



Tore it while trying to get the bolt out of the back of the power steering pump. I was in a hurry, shouldn't have been.

What is this piece called? It had a spring and another piece fall out when I took it out.

the part the line is screwed into is the pressure relief valve for the power steering pump. the line needs to be unscrewed. you didnt hurt anything just put the piece back in the order they sprung out at ya.

if you arent happy with the way your power steering is operating you can slot the end of that up to the hole and stretch the spring out and it will bump the power and flow up.
