Is it worth it. How do I identify mine? Rebuild my self or pay someone else.
I like the feel of my current ones. I am the third owner. So I don't know the age of mine

It was a pain.
My friend fixes the parts I have trouble with. It is also nice to have a complete automotive shop with all the goodies. And five hoists. 1 would be fine for me.

Bill this is what I am using. Where do you buy FSM and what do the FSM stand for. Field service manual There are no codes ----------------------------------------------------------- Look at 8A-10-0 the only fusible link that turn into ORANGE from the battery is to the relays (FP, MAF), OPS, ECM. Look to the left side of the wiring schematic for those. All of the rest of the links in that vicinity go to RED wires for Voltage. Since you've posted a scanned image I guess you've got the FSM in hand. Do you need me to post an image of where I mean? Last edited by WVZR-1; Yesterday at 09:15 PM. ------------------------------------------------------------ Unable to get codes as right now the orange wire melted.

I lost my power steering hose last month. On my 87. My power steering pump was only a year old. I decided if I had to tear all the stuff in the way I would just put my other new pump on. And save this one.
Before I put the belt on I hand spin the pump pulley. I check in the reservoir for air bubbles. I leave the reservoir cap off for an hour then start engine. Knock on wood I have never had air in the lines. Good luck Steve

I run a trap league at the KCGC on Sundays. Some days I drive the vet. Last months problem was blown hose on the powesteering. I got a two back from the club. Today they ask where is the vet. One guy asked did you burn it up. All I could say was just a few wires so far.
One day it will be perfect and that will be the day I sell it and get another one. Lol Looking at another now. Lol
