Oil Pump Pressure Test
- Disconnect the pressure hose from the pump, and then connect the special tool between the pump and the pressure hose as illustrated.
- Bleed the air. Start the engine and turn the steering wheel several times so that the fluid temperature rises to approximately 50~60°C (122~132°F)operating temperature.
- Increase the engine speed to 1,000 rpm.
- Close the shut-off valve of the special tool and measure the fluid pressure to confirm that it is within the standard value range.
Standard value
Oil pump pressure
Relief pressure :
7.6~8.1 MPa (78~83 kg/cm, 1102~1175 psi
CAUTION: Don't keep the shut-off valve on the pressure gauge closed for more than ten seconds. - Remove the special tool and then tighten the pressure hose to the specified torque
Tightening torque
55~69 Nm (550~690 kg.cm, 40.6~50.9 Lb. ft)
- Bleed the system.
