My 53 Ford NAA still has the Vane Type pump. The pressure line (smaller one)has developed some pin hole leaks about 3" down from the pump mounting flange. The loss of pressure will not allow the system to work and it is doing a good job of oiling my right front tire :<).
I an looking for Ideas (Cost effective ones) to repair or replace the line. I am thinking about removing the pipe from the pump flange and inserting
a pipe fitting to attach a flexible line and grafting it into the hard line were it turns horizontal going back to the case. My question is is this a feasible repair??
Or does someone have a Vane Pump Pressure line they want to sell because they upgraded to the newer type pump?
Thanks in advance,
Sam
