Power Steering Pump
- Install the power steering pump with reservoir and pulley on the engine and install the three pump mounting bolts. (Figure). Tighten the bolt located at the 9 O'clock position to 28 N.m (250 in. lbs.). DO NOT fully tighten the two thru-bolts (located at the 12 and 6 O'clock positions) at this time.
- Tighten the two bolts securing the stamped support bracket to the engine block. (Figure). Tighten the bolts to 54 N.m (40 ft. lbs.).
- Tighten the two pump mounting thru-bolts (located at the 12 and 6 O'clock positions) to 28 N.m (250 in. lbs.). (Figure).
- Install the power steering pump drive belt on the power steering pump pulley. (Refer to COOLING SYSTEMS ).
- Using a lint free towel, wipe clean all open power steering hose ends and power steering pump fittings.
- Install a NEW "O" ring on the end of the power steering pressure hose. Lubricate the "O" ring using clean power steering fluid.
- Attach the power steering fluid pressure hose to the pressure fitting on the lower end of the power steering pump. (Figure). Thread the tube nut securing the power steering fluid pressure hose into the power steering pump pressure fitting. Tighten the tube nut to 34 N.m (25 ft. lbs.).
- Slide the power steering fluid return hose onto the fluid reservoir fitting. (Figure). Position the hose clamp so it is installed on the hose past the bead formed into the fluid reservoir fitting.
- Perform the POWER STEERING PUMP INITIAL OPERATION procedure. (Refer to STANDARD PROCEDURE ).
- Check for leaks.
