PUMP (Continued)
(2) Ensuring that the installer and the pulley
remain aligned with the pump shaft, turn the
installer outer nut and force the pulley onto the
power steering pump shaft until it is flush with the
end of the pump shaft. Once the pulley is flush with
the end of the shaft, the installer outer nut will no
longer be able to turn.
(3) Remove the installer from the power steering
pump.
(4) Install the power steering pump back on the
engine. (Refer to 19 - STEERING/PUMP - INSTAL-
LATION)
INSTALLATION
INSTALLATION - 1.6L ENGINE
The power steering pump is attached to the water
pump as an assembly on the engine. To install the
power steering pump, (Refer to 7 - COOLING/EN-
GINE/WATER PUMP - INSTALLATION).
INSTALLATION - 2.0L/2.4L ENGINE
(1) Using a lint free towel, wipe clean the open
power steering pressure hose end and the power
steering pump port. Replace any used O-rings with
new. Lubricate the O-ring with clean power steering
fluid.
(2) Ease the cooling module forward, don't force it,
and install the power steering pump and pulley into
its mounting area in the same fashion it was
removed (Fig. 14).
(3) Place the pump in mounting position with the
stamped steel support bracket behind it (Fig. 13).
Install the three bolts through the bracket and
pump, into the threaded engine cover. Do not tighten
the bolts at this time.
(4) Install the two bolts fastening the bracket to
the engine block (Fig. 13). Tighten the two bolts to a
torque of 54 N·m (40 ft. lbs.).
(5) Tighten the three pump mounting bolts previ-
ously installed to a torque of 28 N·m (250 in. lbs.).
(6) Push the fluid supply hose onto the pump sup-
ply fitting. Expand the hose clamp and slide it over
the hose and pump supply fitting (Fig. 12). Secure
the clamp once it is past the bead formed into the
fluid reservoir fitting.
CAUTION: Make sure the supply hose is routed
above the engine timing chain cover. The power
steering fluid supply hose must remain clear of any
unfriendly surface that can cause possible damage
to it.
(7) Raise the vehicle.
(8) Thread the fluid pressure hose tube nut into
the pump (Fig. 6) (Fig. 7).
(9) Using a crowfoot wrench on a long extension
with a torque wrench, tighten the pressure hose tube
nut at the power steering pump to a torque of 68
N·m (50 ft. lbs.).
(10) Install the four bolts fastening the A/C com-
pressor to the engine (Fig. 5). Tighten the mounting
bolts to a torque of 28 N·m (250 in. lbs.).
(11) Install the A/C compressor electrical connec-
tors (Fig. 5).
(12) Install the A/C drive belt. Refer to the Cooling
section for the procedure.
(13) Install the drive-belt splash shield and fasten-
ers (Fig. 4).
(14) Install the screws fastening the front fascia to
the reinforcement (Fig. 4).
(15) Install the right front tire and wheel assem-
bly. Install and tighten the wheel mounting nuts to a
torque of 135 N·m (100 ft. lbs.).
(16) Lower the vehicle.
(17) Remove the bungee cord and move the cooling
module back into is lower mounts.
(18) If previously removed, install the right side
bolts securing the lower radiator closure panel in
front of the cooling module.
(19) Install the radiator closure panel and fasten it
in place (Fig. 10).
(20) Install the ambient temperature sensor on the
radiator closure panel (Fig. 9).
(21) Install the hood-opening weather-strip across
the radiator closure panel.
(22) Install the grille on the front of the vehicle
(Fig. 8).
(23) Perform the POWER STEERING PUMP INI-
TIAL OPERATION service procedure to properly fill
and bleed the power steering system. (Refer to 19 -
STEERING/PUMP - STANDARD PROCEDURE)
(24) Check for leaks.
INSTALLATION - 2.4L TURBO
(1) Using a lint free towel, wipe clean open power
steering pressure hose end and power steering pump
pressure port. Replace any used O-rings with new.
Lubricate O-ring with clean power steering fluid.
(2) Install power steering pump with pulley and
reservoir into its mounting area in same fashion it
was removed.
(3) Place pump in mounting position with stamped
steel support bracket behind it. Install three pump
mounting bolts through bracket and pump, into
threaded engine cover (Fig. 20). DO NOT TIGHTEN
BOLTS AT THIS TIME.
(4) Install two bolts fastening support bracket to
engine block (Fig. 21). Tighten two bolts to 54 N·m
(40 ft. lbs.) torque.
(5) Tighten three pump mounting bolts previously
installed (Fig. 20) to 28 N·m (250 in. lbs.) torque.
