AssemblyNLST0043Assemble oil pump, noting the following instructions.
+Make sure O-rings and oil seal are properly installed.
+Always install new O-rings and oil seal.
+Be careful of oil seal direction.
+Cam ring, rotor and vanes must be replaced as a set if neces-
sary.
+Coat each part with DEXRON
TMIII or equivalent when assem-
bling.
SST289A
+Pay attention to the direction of rotor.
SST843A
+When assembling vanes to rotor, rounded surfaces of vanes
must face cam ring side.
SST472C
+Insert pin 2 into pin groove 1 of front housing and front side
plate. Then install cam ring 3 as shown at left.
