  Q: How to replace the Power Steering Pump (LD8) on Buick Lucerne?

  A: The process of replacing the Power Steering Pump (LD8) requires users to start by removing the Drive Belt and installing a drain pan below the vehicle. The power steering return hose needs detachment from the Power Steering Reservoir before removing the power steering pressure hose from the Power Steering Pump. Begin by removing the Power Steering Pump mounting bolt on top of the vehicle to extract the Power Steering Pump followed by the power steering pulley and Power Steering Reservoir. When performing installation begin by installing the reservoir for the power steering system followed by the power steering pulley. When reinstalling the Power Steering Pump into the vehicle install the Power Steering Pump mounting bolt while tightening it to 50 nm (37 ft. Lbs.). Fitting the power steering pressure hose to the Power Steering Reservoir should be done with a torque of 27 nm (20 ft. Lbs.) while the power steering return hose needs fitting onto the Power Steering Reservoir. You should install the Drive Belt before performing power steering bleeding while the drain pan stays under the vehicle.
