Hey Mike, The only fluid that will leak is what is in the line itself, since the car isn't running theres no pressure in the line and the pump itself doesn't hold alot.
Disconnect at the pump first lower the line as much as possible to drain whats in the line. and then you should be able to work from there. place a plug in the p/s pump opening.
Hope this helps. LOL

you can use hydrolic fittings to replace the hose.

finally !!!!!!!! i got the hose put after it got the $%$#% out of me ! the 14 mm nut at the steering gearbox was already on it's way to be stripped ! the clips holding the hose on it 's way were shit to take out ! and after all that i couldn't manage to get the hose out because of the bends at the end of the hose ( metal part of the hose ) ! i had to take the sway bar out , unhook other PS hoses and speed sensor hoses to take it out !! DAMN !! that took me 4 HOURS !! anyway i don't know how would i manage to get it back in after i fix it ! but i think it's kinda free for it now ! (just have to remember the routing ! i hope my friend ( the mechanic ) will be able to fix it ! sorry guys had to vent a little !
