Okay, so, my power steering pump blew because my buddy was doing donuts in my car. I replaced the pump. I think I'm missing an O-ring. There's 2 that came with it. I put the smaller one on the tip of the HP hose going into the pump Where's the other one go?

The other O ring goes on the valve in the power steering pump but if you never remove it there is no reason to replace it because the new pump comes with one already. Here are the instructions on how to change the power steering pump and high-pressure hose to avoid any confusion when doing the job. Check out the images (below). Please upload pictures or videos in your response of the problem so we can see what's going on.
