    PS pump and steering gear box

    The lines from my PS pump run to the top of the steering sector. Are there different compartments in the s. sector for PS fluid and a heavier weight gear oil in a separate compartment of the sector?

    Dist. & plugs

    Okay, might go that route, one thing that happened in all of this was the oil gauge ceramic pieces separated in the gauge, so have to pick a new one up. The needle doesn't have room to swing due to the pieces.

    Fuel tank sending unit assembly

    Hi Bob...I took my old pump off yesterday and installed a new one today.
