8. Lower the vehicle.
9. Secure the pressure line with the retaining clip lo-
cated above the alternator.
Tighten
Tighten the pressure line retaining clip bolt to 8 NSm
(71 lb–in).
10. Connect the return and supply line to the fluid res-
ervoir.
11. Connect the pressure line pipe and the supply line
hose to the outlet and inlet connections on the pow-
er steering pump.
Tighten
Tighten the pressure line fitting to 28 NSm (21 lb–ft).
Notice : When adding fluid or making a complete change,
always use DEXRON®–II or III power steering fluid. Fail-
ure to use the proper fluid will cause hose and seal dam-
age and fluid leaks.
12. Fill the fluid reservoir with power steering fluid.
13. Inspect for leaks. If there are leaks, correct the
cause of the leaks and bleed the system. Refer to
”Bleeding the Power Steering System” in this sec-
tion.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
AND SYSTEM OPERATION
POWER STEERING SYSTEM
General Description
The power steering system consists of three components:
the power steering pump, the power steering fluid reser-
voir and the the power steering rack and pinion gear. The
power steering pump is a vane–type pump providing hy-
draulic pressure for the system and is powered by the en-gine. It draws on the power steering fluid reservoir, which
in turn is connected to the power steering gear. A pres-
sure–relief valve inside the flow control valve limits the
pump pressure. The power steering rack and pinion gear
has a rotary control valve which directs hydraulic fluid
coming from the power steering pump to one side or the
other side of the rack piston. The integral rack piston is at-
tached to the rack. The rack piston converts hydraulic
pressure to a linear force which moves the rack to the left
or the right. The force is then transmitted through the inner
and the outer tie rods to the steering knuckles, which turn
the wheels.
