If you look at the part of the video where you pull the internal collar out, you will notice the arrow pointing “down” towards the fluid passage. Meaning when you reinstalled it pointing “upwards” it was installed opposite of it original orientation. I think those 3 grooves are there to provide fluid passage to from the center housing. You installed it backwards and instructed the audience to do the same. Otherwise excellent video!

@@andrewbugno1417 Thank you for your attention If you mean the cylinder, yes, the purpose of the arrow pointing outward is according to the pump manufacturer's instructions, and its direction up or down does not make a difference in the pump's operation.

Nice video on the power steering pump I have about 30 of them I have collected over the years... As spares

[@Mechanicaltricks]

Thank you my friend for your support

Hi, Great Video! What are You using as a parts cleaning solvent? What are You using as a seal lubricant? And is there any certain direction that the ten (10) impeller tips should fit in the impeller? Any information that You can supply is appreciated. Thank You

[@Mechanicaltricks]

Hello dear friend, thank you for your comment I use diesel fuel for washing because the part remains greasy after washing And for the direction of the pump blades, if I leave them all in a place with a mark when removing them, until I assemble them, I will return them to the first place in the same order. Or if the order is messed up, I put the semicircles of the blades on the outside I use hydraulic or engine oil for lubrication

do the figure 8 when sanding the back plates for the vane s

[@Mechanicaltricks]

@@oldbiker9739 yes sir I did this before, but in this part, the sanding was narrow, and the movement radius of 8 was not possible

[@oldbiker9739]

Same question here?

[@Mechanicaltricks]

@ I stuck it to the side of the oil tank.
