Power Steering Line/Hose: Description and Operation
Standard Pump
NOTE: Numbers in parentheses ( ) indicate a component or tool in the associated illustration.
The pump housing has a pressure connection on which the pressure line (29) is connected to the power steering
The return line (28) from the power steering is secured to the return connection
Vehicles with a high front axle load need high pump pressures and flow rates but this causes pronounced heating up of the steering gear oil
In these cases a servo oil cooler with bypass is also built into the return line
