Question 1

How to service and repair the power steering pump in the P Series on GMC Jimmy?

Accepted Answer

Before performing power steering pump servicing or repairs on the P Series vehicle you need to drain all power steering fluid from the pump. Rework the assembly by removing first the connector and fitting assembly then the O-ring seal. You must remove both the control valve assembly along with the flow control spring from inside the pump housing assembly. Install the flow control spring into the pump housing assembly before adding the control valve assembly onto the flow control spring. You should position the O-ring seal onto the connector and fitting assembly before proceeding. One must read and follow the Fastener Notice contained in Service Precautions before fitting the connector and fitting assembly to the pump housing . The assembly connector and fitting must be tightened to a torque of 75 Nm (55 ft. lbs.).

Question 2

How to replace the power steering pump on GMC Savana 3500?

Accepted Answer

The first step to replace the Power Steering Pump involves setting up a drain pan under the unit then disassembling the Fan Shroud. You should install a 3/8 inch drive ratchet onto the tensioner arm before rotating it counterclockwise to remove the pump Drive Belt. The pump hoses require disconnection followed by raising them to avoid oil drainage before capping their ends and the pump with protective caps. Perform the following steps to remove the reservoir hose from the pump while capping all available fittings on the pump. Utilize the power steering pulley remover (J25034-C) to rotate the nut until it positions at the pilot bolt maximum height. This action ensures the pump shaft reaches its lowest point. Start by holding the pilot bolt and rotating the nut to the left while turning the pulley out of the pump. After that remove the remaining pump line by capping its connection. Take out the pump from the vehicle by first removing its adjusting bolts , nuts and brackets (1, 3). To install the pump the first step is to mount brackets (1,3) to the unit followed by placing the pulley onto the shaft while using the Power Steering Pump pulley installer (J25033-C). The clearance between the pilot bolt and the pump shaft must be checked by turning the nut to the topmost position before using a wrench to hold the pilot bolt and rotatating the nut clockwise. Install the pump assembly to the engine after pumping fluid into the pump housing while using the bolts and nuts in a loose fashion. After pumping fluid into the reservoir you should connect power steering hoses to the pump while tightening the fittings to 27 nm (20 ft. Lbs.). During bleeding of the pump turn the pulley in a counterclockwise direction until air bubbles stop appearing. You should tighten the steering pump mounting bolts to 50 nm (37 ft. Lbs.) before you put the Drive Belt on the pump with a 3/8 inch drive ratchet on the tensioner arm while rotating the arm counterclockwise. The last installation steps include fitting the Fan Shroud while using power steering fluid to fill the system and performing a bleed procedure.

Question 3

How to Properly Service and Replace a Power Steering Pump on GMC Safari?

Accepted Answer

The Power Steering Pump replacement process needs to begin by taking off the Power Steering Pump pulley. The drain pan should be placed under the vehicle while seal caps or plugs keep power steering hoses from fluid leakage. You need to disconnect three hoses: the power Brake Booster inlet tube from the power Brake Booster as well as the power steering cooler hose from the Power Steering Pump along with the Power Steering Pump remote reservoir hose from the Power Steering Pump. Begin by suspending the vehicle before you remove the mounting bracket nut at the back of the Power Steering Pump. Lower the vehicle while you loosen both accessory bracket bolts and nut and gently pull the bracket toward the front direction. Take out the Power Steering Pump together with the power Brake Booster inlet hose by first removing all Power Steering Pump mounting bolts. The power Brake Booster inlet hose should be attached to the Power Steering Pump first before reinstalling the Power Steering Pump together with the inlet hose into the vehicle. You should install the Power Steering Pump mounting bolts using 50 nm torque before tightening them to 37 ft. Lbs. Install the accessory mounting bracket followed by bolting then nut tightening. Both bolts should reach 50 nm (37 ft. Lbs.) and the nut should achieve 41 nm (30 ft. Lbs.). Raising the vehicle once more enables you to install the Power Steering Pump rear mounting bracket nut while tightening it to 41 nm (30 ft. Lbs.) before lowering the vehicle. Attach the remote reservoir hose of the Power Steering Pump by unfastening its ends while connecting the Power Steering Pump to its cooler hose. Secure the power Brake Booster inlet hose to its corresponding connection point at 27 nm (20 ft. Lbs.). The drain pan needs to be removed from beneath the car before fitting the Power Steering Pump pulley while performing a power steering system bleeding procedure. Ending your inspection check for leaks in the Power Steering Pump while verifying all hoses maintain enough space from frame elements and adjacent components.
