I'm going to replace the leaky power steering pump in my fiance's 2000 SE Zetec dohc this weekend. It looks pretty straight forward in the Haynes manual, although it mentions using a special tool to remove one of the hose connections. I haven't had the car up yet to take a look, but is this a tool that I'll need to rent? Or can I get by with common tools? Any other advice would be greatly apprectiatied.

Thanks!

The hose release tool is for the 2.0 SPI fluid cooler line ( I believe).. But you will need the pulley removal/install tool..

Here's a pic of the SPI release tool, the hose released, and then a pick of the Zetec pump showing a standard connection.. Also the pulley/hub tool needed.. And the teflon ring/seal needs to be replaced when ever the hoses is disconnected....
