FUEL PUMP PRESSURE TEST
Use this test in conjunction with other fuel system
tests. Refer to the Fuel Pump Capacity Test, Fuel
Pressure Leak Down Test and Fuel Pump Amperage
Test.
Check Valve Operation:The electric fuel pump
outlet contains a one-way check valve to prevent fuel
flow back into the tank and to maintain fuel supply
line pressure (engine warm) when pump is not oper-
ational. It is also used to keep the fuel supply line
full of gasoline when pump is not operational. After
the vehicle has cooled down, fuel pressure may drop
to 0 psi (cold fluid contracts), but liquid gasoline will
remain in fuel supply line between the check valve
and fuel injectors.Fuel pressure that has
dropped to 0 psi on a cooled down vehicle
(engine off) is a normal condition.When the elec-
tric fuel pump is activated, fuel pressure should
immediately(1±2 seconds) rise to specification.
The fuel system is equipped with a combination
fuel filter/fuel pressure regulator. The fuel pressure
regulator is not controlled by engine vacuum.
WARNING: THE FUEL SYSTEM IS UNDER CON-
STANT FUEL PRESSURE EVEN WITH THE ENGINE
OFF. BEFORE DISCONNECTING FUEL LINE AT
FUEL RAIL, THIS PRESSURE MUST BE RELEASED.REFER TO THE FUEL SYSTEM PRESSURE
RELEASE PROCEDURE.
(1) Remove pressure test port cap at fuel rail test
port (Fig. 12) or (Fig. 13) . Connect 0±414 kPa (0-60
psi) fuel pressure gauge (from gauge set 5069) to test
port pressure fitting on fuel rail (Fig. 14) .The DRB
III Scan Tool along with the PEP module, the
500 psi pressure transducer, and the transduc-
er-to-test port adapter may also be used in
place of the fuel pressure gauge.
(2) Start and warm engine and note pressure
gauge reading. The DRB scan tool may also be used
to power fuel pump. Fuel pressure should be 339 kPa
34 kPa (49.2 psi 5 psi) at idle.
(3) If engine runs, but pressure is below 44.2 psi,
determine if fuel pump or filter/regulator is defective.
Proceed to next step:
(a) Check for a kinked fuel supply line some-
where between fuel rail and fuel pump module.

DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - POWER STEERING SYSTEM
STEERING NOISE
There is some noise in all power steering systems. One of the most common is a hissing sound evident at a
standstill parking. Or when the steering wheel is at the end of it's travel. Hiss is a high frequency noise similar
to that of a water tap being closed slowly. The noise is present in all valves that have a high velocity fluid passing
through an orifice. There is no relationship between this noise and steering performance.

CAUTION: This next step involves testing maximum
pump pressure output and flow control valve oper-
ation. Do not leave valve closed for more than three
seconds as the pump could be damaged.
(12) Close valve fully three times for three seconds
and record highest pressure indicated each time.All
three readings must be at pump relief pressure
specifications and within 345 kPa (50 psi) of
each other.
²Pressures above specifications but not within
345 kPa (50 psi) of each other, replace pump.
²Pressures within 345 kPa (50 psi) of each other
but below specifications, replace pump.
CAUTION: Do not force the pump to operate against
the stops for more than 2 to 4 seconds at a time
because, pump damage will result.
(13) Open the test valve and turn the steering
wheel to the extreme left and right positions against
the stops. Record the highest pressure reading at
each position. Compare readings to the pump specifi-
cations chart. If pressures readings are not within 50

DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - 4.7L -
HYDRAULIC
The following procedures are used to test the oper-
ation of the power steering and hydraulic fan sys-
tems on the vehicle. This test will provide the gallons
per minute (GPM) or flow rate of the power steering
pump along with any maximum relief pressure. Per-
form test anytime a power steering system problem
is present. This test will determine if the power
steering pump, hydraulic fan, and power steering
gear are not functioning properly. It will also deter-
mine if the flow coming out of the hydraulic fan
motor is sufficient for the power steering gear. The
following pressure and flow test is performed using
the Power Steering Analyzer Tool kit 6815 (Fig. 2)
and Adapter kit 8630 (Fig. 3).
FLOW TEST - FLOW FROM POWER STEERING
PUMP
(1) Check the power steering belt to ensure it is in
good condition and adjusted properly.
(2) Connect the pressure gauge hose from the
Power Steering Analyzer to Tube 8630-2.
(3) Connect Adapter 8630-3 to Power Steering
Analyzer test valve end.
(4) Disconnect the high pressure hose from the
power steering pump.
(5) Connect Tube 8630-2 to the pump hose fitting.
(6) Connect the power steering hose from the fan
motor to Adapter 8630-3.
(7) Open the test valve completely.
(8) Start engine and let idle long enough to circu-
late power steering fluid through the flow/pressure
test gauge.
(9) Shut off the engine and check the fluid level,
add fluid ass necessary. Start engine again and let
idle.
(10) The initial pressure reading should be 483 -
690 kPa (70 - 100 psi). If pressure is higher inspect
the hoses for restrictions and repair as necessary.

ADJUSTMENTS
STEERING GEAR
NOTE: Adjusting the steering gear in the vehicle is
not recommended. Remove gear from the vehicle
and drain the fluid. Then mount gear in a vise to
perform adjustments.
OVER-CENTER
(1) Rotate the stub shaft with Socket 8343 from
stop to stop and count the number of turns.
(2) Center the stub shaft by rotating it from the
stop 1/2 of the total amount of turns.
(3) Place torque wrench and Socket 8343 in a ver-
tical position on the stub shaft. Rotate the wrench 45
degrees each side of the center and record the high-
est rotational torque in this range (Fig. 4) . This is
the Over-Center Rotating Torque.
NOTE: The stub shaft must rotate smoothly without
sticking or binding.
(4) Rotate the stub shaft between 90É and 180É to
the left of center and record the left off-center pre-
load. Repeat this to the right of center and record the
right off-center preload. The average of these two
recorded readings is the Preload Rotating Torque.
(5) The Over-Center Rotating Torque should be
0.45-0.80 N´m (4-7 in. lbs.)higherthan the Preload
Rotating Torque.
(6) If an adjustment to the Over-Center Rotating
Torque is necessary, first loosen the adjuster lock
nut. Then turn the pitman shaft adjuster screw back
(COUNTERCLOCKWISE) until fully extended, then
turn back in (CLOCKWISE) one full turn.
(7) Remeasure Over-Center Rotating Torque. If
necessary turn the adjuster screw and repeat mea-
surement until correct Over-Center Rotating Torque
is reached.
NOTE: To increase the Over-Center Rotating Torque
turn the screw CLOCKWISE.(8) Prevent the adjuster screw from turning while
tightening adjuster lock nut. Tighten the adjuster
lock nut to 37-52 N´m (27-38 ft. lbs.).
