Replacing Power Steering Pump, Tips or Suggestions?

[brentwoodboy]

Hi,

my PS pump makes alot of noise, the pulley wobbles, and it leaks. I'm replacing it tomorrow. Are there any special tools I might need to complete the job. I have access to a garage tomorrow so tips asap would be great. Is there anything complicated about it? Thanks!

you will need the pulley puller setup, when you put the new pump in make sure you put the valve in the right way otherwise it won't work......

Can I just rent out a pulley puller? Ha, I didn't even know there was a valve...so nothing is very difficult?

yeah, i don't kmnow if the new one will come with the valve or not, it sits just inside the threaded hole where the hose screws in, i was just saying note how you remove it,

and yeah i would rent the puller.....pretty straightforward
