PUMP
DESCRIPTION - 4.0L, 4.7L
Hydraulic pressure for the power steering system
is provided by a belt driven power steering pump
(Fig. 1) and (Fig. 2). The pump shaft has a
pressed-on drive pulley that is belt driven by the
crankshaft pulley.
OPERATION
OPERATION - 4.7L
The power steering pump is a constant flow rate
and displacement, vane-type pump. The pump has
internal parts that operate submerged in fluid. The
flow control orifice and the pressure relief valve,
which limits the pump pressure, are internal to the
pump. The reservoir is attached to the pump body
with spring clips. The power steering pump is used
to drive the hydraulic engine cooling fan, which sep-
arates the flow to the fan gerotors and the power
steering gear. The power steering pump is connected
to the engine cooling fan by pressure and return
hoses and the pump is connected to the steering gear
via a return hose from the steering cooler (Fig. 2).NOTE: Power steering pumps have different pres-
sure rates and are not interchangeable with other
pumps.OPERATION - 4.0L
The power steering pump is a constant flow rate
and displacement, vane-type pump. The pump inter-
nal parts operate submerged in fluid. The flow con-
trol orifice is part of the high pressure line fitting.
The pressure relief valve inside the flow control valve
limits the pump pressure. The reservoir is attached
to the pump body with spring clips. The power steer-
ing pump is connected to the steering gear by the
pressure and return hoses (Fig. 1).
NOTE: Power steering pumps have different pres-
sure rates and are not interchangeable with other
pumps.

DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - PUMP LEAKAGE
(1) Possible areas of pump leakage (Fig. 3).
STANDARD PROCEDURE
STANDARD PROCEDURE - INITIAL OPERATION
- 4.0L
WARNING: THE FLUID LEVEL SHOULD BE
CHECKED WITH ENGINE OFF TO PREVENT INJURY
FROM MOVING COMPONENTS.
CAUTION: Use MOPAR Power Steering Fluid or
equivalent. Do not use automatic transmission fluid
and do not overfill.
Wipe filler cap clean, then check the fluid level.
The dipstick should indicateCOLDwhen the fluid is
at normal ambient temperature.
(1) Fill the pump fluid reservoir to the proper level
and let the fluid settle for at least two minutes.
(2) Start the engine and let run for a few seconds
then turn engine off.
(3) Add fluid if necessary. Repeat the above proce-
dure until the fluid level remains constant after run-
ning the engine.
(4) Raise the front wheels off the ground.
(5) Slowly turn the steering wheel right and left,
lightly contacting the wheel stops at least 20 times.(6) Check the fluid level add if necessary.
(7) Lower the vehicle, start the engine and turn
the steering wheel slowly from lock to lock.
(8) Stop the engine and check the fluid level and
refill as required.
(9) If the fluid is extremely foamy or milky look-
ing, allow the vehicle to stand a few minutes and
repeat the procedure.
CAUTION: Do not run a vehicle with foamy fluid for
an extended period. This may cause pump damage.
STANDARD PROCEDURE - INITIAL OPERATION
- 4.7L
WARNING: THE FLUID LEVEL SHOULD BE
CHECKED WITH ENGINE OFF TO PREVENT INJURY
FROM MOVING COMPONENTS.
NOTE: Remove as much of the old fluid out of the
system as possible with a suction tool or by remov-
ing a hose, When a component has failed. Then
refill it with fresh fluid until it is clean. This may
have to be done more than once.
CAUTION: Use MOPAR Power Steering Fluid or
equivalent. Do not use automatic transmission fluid
and do not overfill.
Wipe filler cap clean, then check the fluid level.
The dipstick should indicateCOLDwhen the fluid is
at normal ambient temperature.
(1) Fill the pump fluid reservoir to the proper level
and let the fluid settle for at least two minutes.
(2) Start the engine and let run for a few seconds
then turn engine off.
(3) Add fluid if necessary. Repeat the above proce-
dure until the fluid level remains constant after run-
ning the engine.
(4) Raise the front wheels off the ground.
(5) Slowly turn the steering wheel right and left,
lightly contacting the wheel stops at least 20 times.
(6) Check the fluid level add if necessary.
(7) Lower the vehicle, start the engine, and use
the DRB III to activate the hydraulic fan on full fan
operation.
(8)
Turn the steering wheel slowly from lock to lock.
(9) Stop the engine, check the fluid level and refill
as required and repeat the process
CAUTION: Do not run a vehicle with foamy fluid for
an extended period. This may cause pump damage.
(10) If the fluid is extremely foamy or milky look-
ing, allow the vehicle to stand a few minutes and
repeat the procedure.
