Guys,
Having the worst luck with Power steering pumps (I'll make a separate post about that later)
Regarding the recent posts on this subject, I have seen a lot of good info but no solid conclusions. I read the manual on how the pump works and have a good idea how the pressure/flow is controlled. That got me thinking of all the different applications, the pump itself is most likely the same from one application to the next. Primary differences between applications are the flow control valve, spring and fitting and of course the reservoir. So depending on the application these parts will vary, but the actual pump is the same. Agree?
So if my assumption is correct, and if I get a pump for a 76 Toronado, for example, and changed over the flow control valve, spring, fitting from the original pump, and if need be the reservoir, it should work just fine. Correct?
