5. Remove hose clamps from suction and return hoses.
6. Start engine, at idle, read pump pressure at pressure gauge, then turn Off engine. Do not take longer than 10 seconds to take measurement, or damage may occur.
7. If pressure is not within specifications, replace power steering pump.
8. Reverse steps 1 through 5, noting the following:
