I never could get my last coupe's power steering from leaking until I pulled it off the car.....I swore I would never go back. But then again I never went to the trouble of rebuilding the entire system either.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15006550245910423327noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1566717030927573002.post-68014571155048442502013-11-06T09:11:54.331-08:002013-11-06T09:11:54.331-08:00Haha!

Fortunately, we're too far north to really have any use for A/C in a convertible. :-)A.
