Re: [Chrysler300] 64 PS Pump O rings

Dave,

Before you go to the trouble of getting the pump rebuilt, you might check a couple of small possible gremlins that may be causing a leak of PS fluid:

-The high pressure hose fitting to the pump should be double-checked for tightness.

-The low pressure hose should be checked for snugness.

-There is probably a small bolt on the back of the pump holding the reservoir can onto the pump. Check that one for tightness.

-The large o-ring between the reservoir and the pump may be leaking and need to be replaced.

If you thoroughly wipe the whole pump off, you should be able to look up from the bottom a little later and see exactly where the problem is - and pretty easily fix it.

The only other place is can be escaping is the shaft seal itself. And that will call for a rebuild to correct it.

Hello All,

After restoring cooling system and fuel line & clamps, there is still a drip.

Dripping from bottom of Power Steering pump...indeed.

Has any one have a quick source or pn#  for seals/ O rings?

Thanks,
