I don't remember if I used a 5/8" or a 16mm wrench. It helps to unbolt the pump from the bracket first, it allows more wiggle room to access the flare nut. If that's not enough, undo the other end from the power steering rack.

Mine was leaking and I got a new pressure line from autozone. Wasn't too expensive and it fit perfect.
