• Q: How to Replace a Power Steering Reservoir on 2000 GMC Jimmy?

  A: The first step to replacing off-vehicle power steering fluid reservoir involves placing the hydraulic pump on a stable flat surface with the shaft pointed upward. You should push the retaining clip tab out with a screwdriver while moving the reservoir clip away from the hydraulic pump assembly. The second reservoir clip needs to be removed through this process before the actual removal of the reservoir component from the hydraulic pump housing. You should eliminate both the O-ring seal from the reservoir neck and from the hydraulic pump housing. Apply power steering fluid to the new O-ring seal before you place it onto the reservoir neck. Position the reservoir on top of the hydraulic pump assembly so the reservoir neck enters completely. Place the reservoir feet alongside the hydraulic housing sides before putting on the new retaining clips from the pump kit while ensuring complete fitment of retaining tab components on the housing.
