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.

SHOCK ABSORBERS, STRUT CARTRIDGES AND STRUT ASSEMBLIES
You are not required to replace shocks or struts in axle
sets. However, when replacing a shock or strut due to the conditions
that follow, you may suggest replacement of the other shock or strut
on the same axle for improved performance and preventive maintenance.
* Part is close to the end of its useful life
* To extend tire life
* To balance ride and handling
* To improve stopping distance
When replacing steering and/or suspension components which
may affect an alignment angle, you are required to check and adjust
alignment as needed. Refer to the OEM specifications.
Under no circumstances should a technician bend struts or
strut housings.
A vehicle's load-carrying and handling abilities are limited
by its suspension, tires, brakes, and driveline. Installing coil over
shocks or any other load assist device does not increase the vehicle's
load capacity. See the vehicle owner's manual for more details.
NOTE: If vehicle is equipped with original equipment coil over
shocks, apply the conditions for coil springs from the
SPRINGS - COIL, LEAF AND TORSION BAR section of the
STEERING AND SUSPENSION guidelines. If the vehicle is
equipped with add-on coil over shocks, you may suggest
replacing the shocks with standard shocks for any spring-
related condition.

removed to drain fluid. Remove oil filter/screen if necessary.
2) If oil filter/screen is replaced, tighten bolts to
specification. See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS . Clean oil pan, replace
gasket, and install oil pan. Tighten oil pan bolts and drain plug to
specification. See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS . Ensure dipstick hole area is
clean. Fill transmission with Dexron-II ATF, through filler tube,
until COLD level is reached on dipstick. Start engine, and allow to
idle for 2 minutes.
3) Shift transmission into each position, ending in Neutral.
Check fluid level with engine running at idle. If necessary, add
sufficient fluid to bring level to lower mark of dipstick. Recheck
fluid level after transmission is at normal operating temperature.
Transfer Case
Drain plug is located on bottom of transfer case. Change
drain plug gasket whenever fluid is changed. Lubricant level should be
at bottom of fill hole on side of transfer case.

KICKDOWN SERVO
Eclipse, Galant & 3000 GT
1) Remove all dirt and grease around kickdown servo switch.
Remove snap ring and kickdown servo switch.
2) To prevent servo piston from turning, install Adapter
(MD998915) and Kickdown Servo Wrench (MD998918) so tab of wrench
engages with notch of piston. See Fig. 1.
CAUTION: DO NOT push servo piston inward while installing adapter and
servo wrench. Install adapter in brake pressure port by hand
ONLY. DO NOT use wrench to tighten adapter.
