Power Steering Reservoir

Service and repair of the power steering reservoir should begin with fixing the hydraulic pump on a flat surface so the shaft points upward. Insert the screwdriver to spread the retaining tab of the clip before moving the reservoir clip away from its position on the hydraulic pump assembly. The second reservoir clip should be removed through the same process before you extract the reservoir from the hydraulic pump housing. Discard the O-ring seal which you will find at the neck of either the reservoir or the hydraulic pump housing that you need to remove. Complete installation requires power steering fluid lubrication of the new O-ring before placing it around the reservoir neck. Mount the reservoir onto the hydraulic pump assembly where the neck fully joins with the assembly. Place the reservoir feet against the hydraulic pump housing sides then position the new reservoir retaining clips (supplied by the pump) into their appropriate slots so they completely insert into the hydraulic pump housing.

The first step to replace the power steering reservoir off a vehicle for CB Series requires the placement of the hydraulic pump on a secure flat surface with upward-facing shaft orientation. The screwdriver pushes the retaining clip tab to expose it for slipping the reservoir clip away from the hydraulic pump assembly. The removal of a second reservoir clip precedes the hydraulic pump housing after which you can remove the reservoir. The procedure requires you to remove and discard an O-ring seal that exists either on the reservoir neck or hydraulic pump housing. The new O-ring requires power steering fluid as a lubricant before users install it onto the reservoir neck. Place the reservoir onto the hydraulic pump assembly until the reservoir neck fully joins. Secure the feet of the reservoir so they match up directly with the hydraulic pump housing sides while using the supplied retaining clips to mount them onto the hydraulic pump housing.

The service and repair of the power steering reservoir begins with setting the hydraulic pump on a fixed flat surface while positioning the shaft upwards. A screwdriver should be used to push the retaining clip tab out before removing the reservoir clip away from the hydraulic pump assembly. You should repeat this procedure to extract the second reservoir clip followed by removal of the reservoir from its position inside the hydraulic pump housing. The operator needs to eliminate and discard the O-ring seal present at the reservoir neck or at the hydraulic pump housing area. The new O-ring seal requires power steering fluid as a lubricant before installation on the reservoir neck for assembly. Attach the reservoir onto the hydraulic pump assembly so its neck properly fits. Secure the new reservoir retaining clips according to pump guidelines by positioning them properly against the hydraulic pump housing until the tabs fit into the housing correctly.

Insert a screwdriver into the retaining clip tab and force it outward to slide the reservoir clip away from the hydraulic pump assembly.
