Installation

2.7L ENGINE




1. Slide hose clamps (3, 5) onto the ends of the power steering fluid supply hose (2) far enough to clear the fittings on the reservoir and pump once the hose is installed.

NOTE: The use of cable operated hose clamp pliers works well to remove and install the hose clamp at the pump.

2. Place the pump end of the supply hose onto the pump (4) supply fitting. Expand the hose clamp (3) and slide it over the hose and pump supply fitting. Secure the clamp once it is past the bead formed into the fluid supply fitting.
3. Place the reservoir end of the supply hose onto the reservoir (1) supply fitting. Expand the hose clamp (5) and slide it over the hose and supply fitting. Secure the clamp once it is past the bead formed into the fitting.
4. Fill and bleed the power steering system.
5. Check for leaks.
