Yea, be sure not to tighten the high pressure hose banjo bolt too
tight......ARGH!!  Apparently it has a very low shear force required..

Hi,
My head gasket was recently replaced and, after reassembly, the pivot
bolt
on the top left (looking from the front) of the PS pump wasn't fully
tightened and the nut came off. The result is that the seal between the
two
halfs of the pump has blown and emptied what looks like most of the
fluid
into the engine compartment. I've ordered a seal kit and am hoping to
fix it
on Monday. Any BTDTs I should be aware of.

TIA,
