I killed my power steering pump (I think)
#11
alright I see, I will take it apart again and see what it does. It's a pretty quick job. The worst is the fluid. That LR steering fluid is getting expensive Not sure if any PS fluid can go in there can it? I know D1 used auto trans fluid. D2 is supposed to have PAS fluid.

Try this...
When you're tightening the bolts on the back, spin the pulley and as you tighten you'll feel how the pump gets harder to turn.
What I do is tighten the bolts just tight enough to create a drag.

Well it didn’t work. If I don’t want the drag it doesn’t seal (at all). I inspected and when it ran dry at first it wore some grooves in the plate. You can see from the picture. I suppose that makes the extra drag and too much leak by.
These pictures are after I polished the plate a bit.
I ordered a rebuilt one by A1 Cardone.
