Re: P/s rebuild
Where's the leak coming from? Is the pump still making good enough pressure for the steering assist to work when it is full of fluid?

Re: P/s rebuild
Yeah, it works fine when full, but I have to keep adding fluid every other day or so, if it sits. Does it make sense to rebuild? Pretty sure its leaking at the seal. Thanks.

Re: P/s rebuild
interesting thread. I am not losing pressure or fluid, but have a annoying rattle in the pump and am wondering if you can rebuild these babys easily?

Re: P/s rebuild
I think the hardest part is pressing out the shaft bushing. The pumps are simple and most leaks are just o-rings on the can. There's a great how to on the internet.
Google rebuild gm PS pump and you'll find it in a few minutes... |
