Hey guys, as I told I blocked the two vacuum lines, I popped the hood today and found that one was leaking P/S fluid. In case you guys still don't know which vacuum lines I'm talking about, one is from under the engine goes to the most front of the intake plenum, the other one goes from under the engine too, into the side of the intake pipe. The one goes to the side of the intake pipe doesn't leak with just a vacuum cap on it. However the one goes into the front of the intake plenum leaks bad, made a puddle too. What I did is fitting a 10mm screw into it to block it. It split the line a bit and leak. I cut that split part off and rolled the line with electrical tape and screw the screw in. No dripping anymore but still leak.

How do I effectively block this line now?

I do not access to any of my service manuals right this second, but I imagine that there is NOT supposed to be power steering fluid coming out of a vacuum line, and if it is, then the vacuum operated valve is leaking internally... power steering is under extremely high pressure, and I doubt if there is something leaking, there is any conventional way to stop it...
