Power Steering Feed Hose w/ Idle-Up Sensor
I've got a '91 Firebird Formula with the Performance Handling package. This included a power steering feed hose with an idle-up sensor. It has since been discontinued by GM. The original part number, 26004125, returns no results with any search engine and manual searches have turned up nothing. ThirdGen F-Body shops like Youngs, Hawks and YearOne either don't have the part anymore, or any old ones they have lying around are dry-rotted and useless. I realize I could simply use a regular hose, but why. The sensor is there for a reason and with the big tires that are on this car, it'll most likely need it.
Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Re: Power Steering Feed Hose w/ Idle-Up Sensor
No real rush at the moment. The engine's in pieces as I'm putting on some nice Patriot Heads, Lunati self-aligners and maybe some new pushrods. Though I might wait on them as I wanna do a cam job, too but if I'm pulling the radiator and fan to do that I might as well get the money to replace those, too...

I have a non plastic 3 core stock size radiator if you are interested as well. I set an alarm on my phone to check for the hose but I was knee deep in diapers when it went off last night.

Re: Power Steering Feed Hose w/ Idle-Up Sensor
I'm still looking for this. Does it even exist or am I just nuts...
Since I had the computer system completely re-tuned and the curb-idle speed dialed up some, would it even be necessary to use this particular hose?
Could I, in essence, just use a regular feed-line hose and to hell with the sensor?

Re: Power Steering Feed Hose w/ Idle-Up Sensor
I'm going to have to post some pictures. I swear the internet does not believe this thing exists. I can't even find pictures of one anywhere on the internet. This damn thing just flat out doesn't exist on any other car. I have no idea how it came to be here or why but I think I'm just going to rip it out and put in a regular pressure hose.
I'll mess with it later and send ya'll pictures for pure exposure to prove I'm not crazy.
I still have to strip the shortblock and see what the hell's dragging my crank and pulling the engine to a stop. Damnable bearings. -_-

Check out the link below...This page says AC Delco 36-359030 supersedes your part number hose and has a big pic so that maybe you can see if it may be the one you're looking for...
