REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION
PRESSURE HOSE AND TUBE
1. | After draining the power steering fluid, remove the pressure hose mounting clamp.
2. | Lift up the vehicle and remove the mounting clamp which is holding both the pressure tube and the return tube.
3. | Detach the pressure tube fitting in the gear box.
4. | Lower the vehicle and remove the connector.
5. | Remove the pressure hose and tube assembly.
6. | Installation is the reverse of removal.
1. | Install the pressure hose and tube so that they are not twisted and they do not come in contact with any other parts.
2. | After installation, bleed the system.
RETURN TUBE AND HOSE
1. | Detach the hose from the power steering fluid reservoir.
2. | Remove the return tube and hose mounting clamps.
3. | Raise the vehicle and remove the mounting clamp which is holding both the pressure tube and the return tube.
4. | Remove the pressure tube and the return tube fitting in the gear box.
5. | Lower the vehicle and disconnect the clamp holding the return tube and hoses.
6. | Remove the return tube and hoses.
7. | Installation is the reverse of removal.
1. | Install the return tube and hoses so that they are not twisted and they do not come in contact with any other parts.
2. | After installation, air bleed the system.
INSPECTION
1. | Twisting the hose by hand, check for cracks.
2. | Check that the hose does not contact with other components
HOW TO FILL WITH POWER STEERING FLUID
1. | Fill the power steering reservoir with the power steering fluid to the "Max." position.
2. | Lift the front wheels with a jack and turn the steering wheel fully to the left and right, 5~6 times for 15~20 sec., while driving the pulleyonly by operating the start motor.
3. | Start the engine, let it idle and turn the steering wheel fully left and right several times until bubbles disappear from the power steering reservoir.
4. | If the oil color does not become milk-white and the oil level is constant at the "MAX" position, fluid level is O.K.
If the oil level changes when turning the steering wheel, and the oil overflows when stopping the engine, it shows that air bleeding wasn't performed perfectly. As it can cause noise and early damage, you must repeat the aboveprocedures.
