Mine was looped and now it is plugged. Most of my fluid is gone. No problems at all. It's been that way for a long time.

All of you are posting that you looped yours together, but fail to mention how you did it.

AL SS590 M6: I didnt choose to do it your way because I dont have any of that stuff, but I do appreciate your suggestion. Sorry if it seemed like I was ignoring your suggestion. Thanks.

Tom the roofer: Why did you go from looped to plugged? I tried plugged but it didnt work for me because it would only allow me to go so much before I had to let off and then do a little more again. It seemed like it couldnt breathe, so it wouldnt turn very much. Basically it would only turn so much at a time. Youre not having this problem?

Why? It looks cleaner. I have no problems but I have little or no fluid. If that makes a differance? No problems whatsoever and I have a big *** IRON BLOCK that doesn't help steering. If the car is moving " No Problems" sitting still well yes it's a little hard to turn. No big deal to me though.

I honestly don't remember how I looped it. It was sooo long ago. I thought I just cut the hose to about 6" long and hooked it up to the other side with a hose clamp. ?
