That is a joke, a salvage yard is not going to waste there time looking for brake line routing for some customer not spending any money there.

What's your problem?power steering unit

Sounds like a difficult-to-replace hose has ruptured. Sorry, I don't have a diagram. The hoses (only 2- pressure line and return line) run from the pump's reservoir down to the steering unit behind the engine. It's a cramped place and difficult to get your wrench there to loosen and remove the hose. Sometimes you need to lower rear of engine cradle 2 or 3 inches to get to it.
I'm not trying to dissuade you from doing it-it can be done by a DIY-er, but wear protective ear equipment if you are curse-prone like me(lol).
Put a half-pint or so of fluid in reservoir, start car, get underneath (Be safety conscious!), and wiggle the two lines. You will likely spot the break-careful it doesn't get all over you. With that big a leak, anything other than a line break would be easy to spot on the pump or on the rack and pinion unit in back of engine mounted on a cross member. Good luck.

I need to print out break line diagram to know how my break lines are in the buick

if your replacing the lines your self then just follow the lines on the car as you replace them.this sounds more like your asking for a print out for a school project.you can go to the library and get a book with the lines shown in a diagram and photo copy the diagram.

I need a break line diagram for 1995 ford countur

It doesn't connect to master cylinder. The line should connect to a proportioning valve, then from valve to master cylinder.Star at master cylinder and follow lines to proportioning valve.

Need to replace brake line from rear axle forward on a 1996 gmc sierra 1500 pu xcab. i need a diagram.

Chanses are it broke behind the gas tank wear it runs along the frame rail. You don't need a diagram to fix that, just unhook it at both ends and break it off or cut it off buy the tank and take the pieces with you to a auto parts store and they will match it up with new line, just take a tape measure and measure from the rear axel to the front block or perportioning valve, and don't worry about the piece behind the tank, just run the new line alongside the old one behind the tank unless you want to pull the tank out.

Brake diagram for 1995 dodge caravan

Could be air in the line..
Could be the caliper..
Could be the break line - the flexable line that runs from the metal line to the caliper..

If you get a Chilton Book for that car - it has how to diagams for breaks, electric - etc.
A good investment..

Rate well ;o)
