If it is more than the maximum, replace the vane pump assy.
21. Inspect flow control valve
- Coat the flow control valve with power steering fluid and check that it falls smoothly into the flow control valve hole by its own weight.

- Check the flow control valve for leakage. Close one of the holes and apply compressed air of 392 – 490 kpa (4 – 5 Kgf·cm2, 57 – 71 psi) into the opposite side hole, and confirm that air does not come out from the end holes.
If necessary, replace the vane pump assy.
22. Inspect flow control valve compression spring
- Using vernier calipers, measure the free length of the spring.
Minimum free length: 36.9 Mm (1.453 In.)
If it is not within the specification, replace the vane pump assy.
23. Inspect pressure port union- if the union seat in the pressure port union is remarkably damaged and it may cause fluid leakage, replace the vane pump assy.

- Coat a new vane pump housing oil seal lip with power steering fluid.
- using sst and a press, install a new vane pump housing oil seal.
Sst 09950–60010 (09951–00280), 09950–70010 (09951–07100)

- gradually insert the vane pump shaft.
: do not damage the vane pump housing oil seal lip in the vane pump housing front.
26. Install vane pump side plate front
- Coat a new o–ring with power steering fluid and install it to the vane pump housing front.

- Coat a new o–ring with power steering fluid and install it to the side plate front.

- Align the dent of the vane pump side plate front with that of the vane pump housing front, and install the vane pump side plate front.
: make sure that the side plate front is installed facing in the correct direction.
27. Install vane pump cam ring
- Align the dent of the cam ring with that of the side plate front, and install the cam ring with the inscribed mark facing outward.

- Install the vane pump rotor with the inscribed mark facing outward.
- coat 10 vane plates with power steering fluid.
- install the vane plates with the round end facing outward.

- Using a snap ring expander, install a new snap ring to the w/ pulley shaft sub–assy.
- coat a new o–ring with power steering fluid and install it to the pump housing rear.
- align the straight pin of the vane pump housing rear with the dents of the vane pump cam ring, vane pump side plate front and vane pump housing front, and install the vane pump housing rear with the 4 bolts.
