INSTALLATION - 2.0L ENGINE





1. Install the power steering pressure hose into the engine compartment reversing the direction in which it was removed.
2. Using a lint free towel, wipe clean the open power steering hose end and the power steering pump port. Replace the used O-ring with new. Lubricate the O-ring with power steering fluid.
3. Attach the power steering fluid pressure hose to the outlet fitting on the bottom of the power steering pump. Do not tighten the tube nut at this time.
4. Raise the vehicle.

CAUTION: The power steering fluid hoses must remain away from the exhaust system, vehicle components, and unfriendly surfaces that can cause possible damage to the power steering hoses.





5. Install the bolt attaching the power steering fluid pressure hose routing clamp to the engine. Tighten the bolt to 61 Nm (45 ft. lbs.) torque.
6. Route the hose below the oil pan near the transaxle and install the structural collar along with the hose routing bracket using the following sequence:

NOTE: Use care not to pinch pressure hose between collar and engine.

a. Install and tighten the collar-to-oil pan bolts to 3 Nm (30 inch lbs.) torque.
b. Install and tighten the collar-to-transaxle bolts to 108 Nm (80 ft. lbs.) torque.
c. Repeat tightening of collar-to-oil pan bolts to a final torque of 54 Nm (40 ft. lbs.).
7. Using a lint free towel, wipe clean the open power steering hose end and the power steering gear port. Replace the used O-ring with new. Lubricate the O-ring with power steering fluid.








8. Attach the power steering fluid pressure hose to the port on the power steering gear. Start the tube nut threads into the gear and tighten it to 34 Nm (25 ft. lbs.) torque.
9. Lower the vehicle.
10. Tighten the pressure hose tube nut at the pump to a torque of 34 Nm (25 ft. lbs.).
11. Perform the POWER STEERING PUMP INITIAL OPERATION procedure.
12. Check for leaks at all hose connections.
