PERFORMANCE ORDER

Remove the air inlet (1). Siphon the power steering fluid from the reservoir (7). Disconnect from the steering pump hose expansion (2), - ready to collect spilled liquid and connect a transition line (3). By the expansion hose (2), connect the adapter (4). Connect to the transition line (3) pressure gauge (5). Between the pressure gauge (5) and the coupling (4), turn the shut-off valve (6). Make sure that the connected components do not come into contact with moving components in the engine compartment. Check the compression fittings. Fill the tank of the steering pump (7) the necessary number of (up to the normal level) of hydraulic fluid. Start the engine and raise its turnover to about 1,000 per minute. Close the shut-off valve (6) and read the pressure gauge. Try to carry out the necessary procedures as quickly as possible to avoid overheating the temperature of the liquid! Stop the engine, pump the fluid from the reservoir (7) and remove the measuring equipment. Restore initial connection of all the lines, adjust the liquid level in the tank GUR (see chap. Current leaving and service), and then remove the air from the hydraulic path, several times turning the steering wheel from lock to lock. Check choke assemblies for signs of leakage, if necessary tighten the nuts. Replace the air intake (1).
