DISCHARGE FITTING FERRULE REPLACEMENT
(1) Wipe away all dirt around the discharge fitting
and tighten the high pressure hose tube nut to
24
foot-
pounds.
(2)
Start the engine and turn the steering gear from
full right to full left to build up pressure.
If the discharge fitting is leaking, disconnect the
high pressure hose at the pump and examine the tub-
ing flare for nicks, scratches, or other damage. If the
tubing flare or nut is damaged, replace the high
pressure hose.
(3) Examine the pump housing in the discharge
area to be sure that the housing has not been dam-
aged by cross-threading or over-tightening the flare
nut. If the housing is cracked or
if
the threads are
damaged; the pump must be replaced.
(4)
Examine the brass ferrule in the pump discharge
fitting for nicks and scratches. The hose tubing flare
should make an indentation in the ferrule which is
concentric with the center hole and of approximate
uniform depth all the way around. If the ferrule is
damaged or not seated properly, replace
it
as follows:
(a) Remove the pump from the vehicle.
(b) Clamp the pump in a vise with the discharge
opening in the down position, this will prevent any
chips from falling into the pump.
(c) Use a No.

operation carefully so as not to damage the threads
on the housing.
(d) Clean out the discharge bore of any foreign
material (brass chips, dirt etc.).
(e) Center the new ferrule with the tapered end up
in the housing bore. The ferrule is pressed into place
by the high pressure hose and tightening the flare
nut to
24
foot-pounds. Figure 10 is a cutaway view to
show the ferrule properly seated in the housing.
CAUTION: Be sure that the ferrule
is centered in
the housing bore before reinstalling the high prer-
sure hose flare nut.
