1992 GMC Magnavan 5.7 KSECTION Inspection
- Inspect all valves, springs, sleeves and bushings for chips, burrs, distortion and freeness in bores. Check pressure relief ball and spring for damage and distortion, especially after metal contamination. Low main line pressure will exist if ball and spring are damaged.NOTE: Use compressed air to blow out all passages, especially converter passage between TCC apply valve and stator support shaft. Metal particles commonly get lodged inside passage.
- Inspect pump cover screen and "O" ring for wear and damage. Clean pump body and cover. Check all bores for obstructions. Inspect mating sides of cover and body for scoring, flatness and damage between channels. Check channels for dirt and damaged passages. Inspect stator shaft and pump body bushings for damage.
- Inspect rotor and slide for scoring, cracks and damage. Check rotor guide and pump vane rings for excessive wear and damage. Inspect all seals for damage. Measure pump rotor and slide thickness in undamaged area if replacement is required. Replacement components must be same size as those removed to provide proper end clearance.
