damage. Inspect groove of rotor vane and cam surface for stepped wear.
Check vane for damage. Install vane into rotor groove. Measure
clearance between vane and rotor groove. If clearance exceeds .0024"
(.061 mm), replace entire assembly.
2) Check ring and rotor sides for damage. Replace entire
assembly if any damage is present. Check sliding surfaces of control
valve for obstructions. Replace parts as required. If control valve is
replaced, always use valve with same identification mark as one being
replaced. Check power steering fluid pressure.
Reassembly
1) Lubricate "O" rings and internal pump components with ATF
before reassembly. Install flow control valve spring and control valve
in housing.
2) Install and tighten pressure connector. Depress control
valve to check for smooth operation. Apply grease to lip of oil seal.
Install oil seal into pump body. Install pulley assembly into pump
body.
3) Install rotor to pulley assembly with punch mark at pump
cover side. Install snap ring. Lift rotor to ensure that snap ring is
in countersunk part of shaft. Align cam ring dowel holes and install
cam ring with punch mark on pump body side.
4) Apply transmission fluid to vanes, and install vanes onto
rotor with rounded edges outward. Install "O" ring, cam case and pump
cover. Install and tighten suction connector.
