Default str no steering random hose

hello,

More: realistically for someone at your level of expertise on this car you may be wise to get it sorted out by someone who'll know how - probably a jag franchise or indy and my guess is they'll need to trailer it away (or the like).

Ok, does your vehicle have the entire under vehicle belly/splash pan? I take it it doesn't. There is a power steering hose that is a "dead end" hose that has 1 clip that holds it to the backside of the cross member. The clip popped off the cross member and the hose you are questioning dragged on the pavement to the point the "dead end" was ground off, hense loosing all your power steering fluid. See picture, its the best I have.

Now you can try to "cap" the ground off portion of hose, fill power steering reservoir and perform bleed procedure and cross your fingers. Don't forget to at least ziptie the hose back to the cross member.

Good luck and let us know how you make out. BTW you might want to find a belly/splash pan, as there are other hoses and such that are very low to the ground as well!
