tim es without rolling car to change tire-to-floor

c. Hold steering wheel against a stop momentarily
and read pressure gauge. If the maximum pres­
sure is below specifications, a faulty hydraulic
circuit is indicated. To determine which part is
faulty, proceed with test number two.
Test Number Two—Oil Circuit Closed
a. Slowly turn shut-off valve on J-5176 to closed
position and read pressure indicated on gauge.
Quickly reopen valve to avoid pump damage. If
indicated pressure is less than specification,
pump output is below requirement and pump may
be considered faulty. If pressure indicated is
within specifications, it may be safely assumed
that the external hoses, connections, valve and
adapter or steering gear is at fault.
NOTE:
If pump proves faulty in test number
two, test should be repeated after pump is re­
paired and installed in vehicle. This will provide
a means of checking the repairs made to the
pump and the condition of the steering gear or
valve and adapter which may also be faulty.
