Finally got some fresh info for you on this. I believe you ARE missing part number 17. What your pic is showing is the machined aluminum pad that hold the bottom of that geared shaft in place like a plain thrust bearing surface. Pics show part 17 as it falls loose when removing the housing. You...

Agreed. Thats why I said it sounds good on paper. I would love to change out all the fluid...but...what I've been hearing from a few different professional sources is that power flushing seemed to be moving undesirable particles from nooks and crannies in the torque converters and coolers and...

I've only heard that about having a "full Flush" service done. Never about a basic filter change. Dealers and some shops used to offer a flush that used a machine that flushed the entire system with fresh fluid. Sounded good in theory but moved debris into the valve body where hilarity ensued...

Its been a while since I had one apart to be honest. Try pulling that shaft and see if it comes out and turns out to be the driven gear. It should just slide out if it is.

If I recall correctly, 21-17 will usually be found as an assembly. 17 will slip over that shaft in the pic and the gear end of 17 will mesh with a helix on the output shaft. There are usually different color coded/gear tooth counts of the 17 part that correspond to gear ratios to calibrate the...

The red reset button is behind the battery box under the B pillar cross brace. There is a space there that is protected from kicking by a plate at the front of the passenger rear footwell. You can remove that plate and see what all is in that space. Depending on your vehicle configuration there...

Coolant issue...If the engine has been running a while and you have steaming coolant at the reservoir but the top radiator hose is not getting hot(temp gauge working? past middle?) then your thermostat may be stuck closed. I would replace it with OEM as part of a complete servicing anyhow. Then...

The P/S system will be whining at the same time so make sure you keep that reservoir topped up as well so it doesnt suck air. Make sure there is ATF in the trans as well.

Its very likely there is residual fluid in all the systems. Once all fluids are present start the truck with the radiator cap off and it will start to draw coolant into the system. Keep adding coolant to keep the tank at the full line so it doesn't gulp any air. When the thermostat opens you...

Thats my 1998(2009 rebuid) M1123

First off...running the engine for any length of time with empty coolant and empty P/S fluid is BAD. #1 wait till there is coolant in the engine first. #2 Fan needs P/S system full to disengage. It operates in failsafe mode and turns on when something in the system fails or it shot up. #3...
