22. Check the inner wall of the valve housing where the seal ring slides with your finger. If there is a step in the wall, the valve housing is worn.
Replace the valve housing.
NOTE: There may be the sliding marks from the seal ring on the wall of the valve housing. Replace the valve housing only if the wall is stepped.
23. Check for wear, burrs and other damage to the edges of the grooves in the sleeve.
NOTE: The pinion shaft and sleeve are a precision matched set. If either the pinion shaft or sleeve must be replaced, replace the both parts as a
set.
