Power Steering Pump

A proper suction tool should be used initially to extract power steering fluid from the reservoir during power steering pump servicing. Proceed by taking off the power steering pump pulley from its position. Users should free the clamp and detach the supply hose but they must secure the pressure line bracket-to-engine nut to 8 Nm (71 lb-in) torque when reinstalling. The pressure line-to-pump fitting should be disconnected to remove the Teflon® seal before reinstallation where the fitting requires a torque of 73 Nm (54 lb-ft). Tighten the power steering pump bolts to 30 Nm (22 lb-ft) during installation while removing them initially. A proper installation of new Teflon® seals requires using the Teflon® Seal Installer Set for this application. Complete the power steering system filling procedure to finish the work.

The first step for servicing or repairing the power steering pump requires disabling the fire suppression system because it protects from serious personal injury. A proper suction device should remove power steering fluid from the reservoir. You need to remove the power steering pump pulley next in the procedure. Being careful not to damage its components disconnect the power steering pump supply hose by loosening its clamp before removing the pressure line bracket-to-engine nut which needs to be tightened to 8 Nm (71 lb-in) when reinstalling. The installation should include removing and trashing the Teflon® seal then applying 73 Nm (54 lb-ft) tightening force to the new fitting. During reinstallation use 30 Nm (22 lb-ft) torque to fasten the three power steering pump securing bolts. The process of connecting a Teflon® sealed fitting requires new seals to be installed through the Teflon® Seal Installer Set. The power steering system requires filling after completion of power steering system reassembly. The vehicle must have its fire suppression system repowered only after completing all safe procedure steps to avoid personal accidents.
