- Clean all pump components in clean solvent. Blow dry. Inspect flow control valve assembly for wear, scoring, burrs or other damage. Inspect seal bore for burrs, nicks, or score marks that would allow oil to by-pass outer seal surface.
- Check all machined surfaces of body for scratches or burrs which might allow leaks. Check "O" ring mating surfaces. Inspect pump housing drive shaft bushing for excessive wear.
- If replacement is required, replace pump and bushing as an assembly. Inspect end plate "O" ring mating surface for nicks and burrs. Polish with oil stone (if required).
- Inspect rotor ring for roughness or irregularities. Use oil stone to correct minor irregularities. Replace ring if outside cam surface is worn or scored.
- Check thrust plate and pressure plate for scoring and wear. To remove light scoring, lap with crocus cloth until surface is smooth and flat. Clean thoroughly. Ensure vanes slide freely but fit snugly into slots. Replace as required.
- If vanes are loose in rotor slots, replace rotor and/or vanes. Scoring on rotor may be removed with crocus cloth. Clean all components thoroughly.
