Installation
1. Install a new pump and main control valve body-to-chain cover gasket onto chain cover.
2. Carefully slide pump assembly and main control valve body over pump shaft and onto chain cover.
3. For vehicles without ABS:
a. Remove manual shift valve from main control valve body.
b. Rotate the main control valve body as necessary to allow engagement between the pump shaft and pump assembly. If complete engagement
has been obtained, the main control valve body should slide flush onto chain cover with little effort.
c. After full engagement between the pump shaft and pump assembly has been obtained, align main control valve body to installation position
and install manual shift valve.
NOTE: On vehicles equipped with anti-lock brake system (ABS), the hydraulic modulator may not afford enough clearance to sufficiently rotate
the pump assembly and main control valve body to complete engagement between the pump shaft and pump assembly. It may be necessary to
rotate the crankshaft using a 7/8-inch deep well socket on the crankshaft pulley to complete the engagement of the pump shaft with the pump
assembly.
4. Rotate pump assembly and main control valve body clockwise and connect manual valve link with manual shift valve.
