Possibly the most difficult P/S hose to change directions way to long so click on bottom of post manuals and for $10.95 download. Biggie is drop engine cradle and bunch of other stuff

Thanks! I found a manual showing 6.2 hours to replace it. I'm going to attempt it this weekend if everything goes good.
