hi, i am in the process of removing and replacing my power steering pump on a 85 300zx 2+2, non turbo-5spd, and i am having a really tuff time removing the banjo bolt. it will not budge and it is the only thing that i have left to remove. the haynes manual says nothing but just remove it. can some one help me with this please? i'm at a lose here on what to do

 

i also just broke off the power steering pump electrical connector and i was wondering how vital it was to have that on there? is it something i can just go without or not?

 

What tools are you using?

 

i just replaced mine as well but im just wondering, what is a banjo bolt? Since we are talking about power steering pumps, i bought a new one and the shaft moves in and out about one MAYBE two mm. Is this normal, or should i send it back to the company? By the way, the car is an 84 na.

 

Drum roll please... (thanks Google images!)

BANJO BOLT:

 

Is this the one on the hose??? I think??? I have one on my parts car. If you can't find one, just let me know and I can sent it to you...

That bolt should be ez to get out

 

okay what the problem was that i broke off the piece, and since the banjo bolt has those holes in there it leaks out since i broke off the electrical connector
can anyone help me with if i can weld it back on or what to do?

 

Post a pic of the damage....

 

hey this a little side thing, but im wanting to remove my a/c unit, and it is on the same belt that hooks up to the accessory pulley, what is this used for or can i go without it? i dont need my a/c so i wanted to remove it and just checking to see if possible?
