INSPECTION
1. MEASURE OIL CLEARANCE BETWEEN VANE PUMP
Bushing
SHAFT AND BUSHING
Using a micrometer and a caliper gauge, measure the oil clear-
ance.
Standard clearance:
0.021 - 0.043 mm (0.0008 - 0.0017 in.)
Vane Pump Shaft Front Housing Maximum clearance: 0.07 mm (0.0028 in.)
F08474
If it is more than the maximum, replace the front housing and
vane pump shaft.
Thickness
2. INSPECT VANE PUMP ROTOR AND VANE PLATES
(a) Using a micrometer, measure the height, thickness and
Height length of the 10 vane plates.
Minimum height: 7.6 mm (0.299 in.)
Minimum thickness: 1.405 mm (0.0553 in.)
Minimum length: 11.993 mm (0.4722 in.)
Length
N00372
(b) Using a feeler gauge, measure the clearance between
the vane pump rotor groove and vane plate.
Maximum clearance: 0.03 mm (0.0012 in.)

STEERING - POWER STEERING VANE PUMP
If it is more than the maximum, replace the vane plate and/or
vane pump rotor with the one having the same mark stamped
on the cam ring.
Inscribed mark: 0, 1, 2, 3, or 4
HINT:
There are 5 vane plate lengths corresponding to the following
vane pump rotor and cam ring marks:

3. INSPECT FLOW CONTROL VALVE
(a) Coat the flow control valve with power steering fluid and
check that it falls smoothly into the valve hole of the front
housing by its own weight.
F08887
(b) Check the flow control valve for leakage. Close one of the
Compressed Air
holes and apply compressed air of 392 - 490 kPa (4 - 5
kgf/cm2, 57 - 71 psi) into the opposite side hole, and con-
firm that air does not come out from the end hole.
F08804
If necessary, replace the flow control valve with the one having
Inscribed Mark
the same letter as inscribed on the front housing.
Inscribed mark: A, B, C, D, E or F

4. INSPECT SPRING
Using vernier calipers, measure the free length of the spring.
Minimum free length: 35.8 mm (1.409 in.)
If it is not within the specification, replace the spring.
