    Q:
    How to Replace a Power Steering Reservoir on Chevrolet Astro? Posted by Customer
    A:
    Draining the power steering fluid from the Power Steering Pump should be the first step before dealing with the Power Steering Reservoir replacement off your vehicle. The pump mounting studs need removal before you detach the connector and fitting assembly and o-ring seal from it. Removing the control valve assembly together with the flow control spring from the pump housing assembly becomes essential during flow control valve replacement. One must first remove the o-ring seals , , and from the reservoir assembly before detaching it from the pump housing assembly. An evaluation of the welch plug inside the Power Steering Pump housing should happen without removing the plug. Deformation or dislodgment of the welch plug requires replacing the entire Power Steering Pump. To assemble the system use new o-ring seals which should get a lubrication treatment with power steering fluid. Reinstall the pump housing assembly structure by adding the control valve assembly and flow control spring first but also position the o-ring seals , , and correctly. After installing the magnet on the pump housing assembly you need to connect its reservoir assembly to it. Place the o-ring seal onto the pump housing before you install the connector and fitting assembly on its surface. When mounting the pump with its studs on the pump housing ensure they are tightened to 58 nm (43 ft. Lbs.) simultaneously with the connector and fitting assembly mounting to 75 nm (55 ft. Lbs.).
