  11. Connect the battery ground terminal.
  12. Feed the specified fluid.
    NOTE: Never start the engine before feeding the fluid; otherwise vane pump might seize up.
  13. Finally check clearance between pipes and/or hoses, as shown above.

    If the clearance between cruise control pump and power steering hose is less than 10 mm (0.39 in), proceed as follows:

    1. Move the clamped section (A) down to a point where the pipe is close to crossmember.
      1. Pipe-to-crossmember clearance:  10 mm (0.39 in), min.
