davidh190 Posted March 25, 2018 Share Posted March 25, 2018 Hi guys, Replaced my power steering pump but didn’t change the filter. The noise went away for a few weeks after I changed the pump but it’s back. Makes it when in motion and when I move the steering wheel. Any suggestions?

HOrnbrod Posted March 25, 2018 Share Posted March 25, 2018 What filter? What kind of noise? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidh190 Posted March 25, 2018 Author Share Posted March 25, 2018 What filter? What kind of noise? Is there a power steering filter? Not sure how I can describe the voice but it gets louder when I move the steering wheel.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HOrnbrod Posted March 25, 2018 Share Posted March 25, 2018 Unless someone added an external, there's no filter. Did you "bleed" the new pump after filling it with fresh fluid? You bleed it by starting it up after installation, then turning the steering wheel stop-to-stop in place until the reservoir stops bubbling air. What are you driving?

Smokeyyank Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 You might have a bad pump even if it's new. There is no filter unless it was added. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HOrnbrod Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 Let me rephrase the question: "I'm waiting for my new high pressure sensor to arrive from team cherokee to do this on mine next week." Is this HP switch for the 2.5? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saveevryjp1998 Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 Yep the 86 2.5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saveevryjp1998 Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 It was here waiting for me but I have not verified part numbers yet. I just ordered it since it was a third the price as anywhere else I looked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saveevryjp1998 Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 The bag it came in says"power steering pressure switch part#53000970 87-95 yj 84-97 xj" Its blue looks like the one on autozones website and has the number 895000970 100 96 and thats all I can tell you now except I also bought a chrome front grill insert too for 20 bucks from them. It seems like the parts are starting to expand on their site since last Id been there. I don't visit them much though. I rarely buy new but some of its so cheap on there and a good buy its not worth spending the precious junkyard time pulling those parts I can buy new there.

HOrnbrod Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 Yes, they are used only on the 2.5's. Where does it screw into? Is there a "T" fitting on the high pressure hose? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saveevryjp1998 Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 Yes. If someone could tell me how to post a picture on here I'd be in heaven and glad to show you as well as start many write ups. I don't know if its my cheap phone or what. I do not have a computer or digital camera, I use my phone for it all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you using the tapatalk app for access to the club forum or using your main internet browser?Tapatalk is the easiest by far to add pictures.You simply start a thread and in the body of the thread there is a button to attach pictures or files etc.. you push that button and it accesses your phones picture library. Select the picture you want or multiples and hit send. Give them a minute to load and attach into the body of your message and once they load, hit the Go button or arrow or whatever is the enter button on your app. They should easily post in the thread, a reply within a thread or even a PM.Is this helpful? Give it a shot in the test section of the forum! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KozmicKuda Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 Just replaced the PS pump on my 87 4.0. The PS rebuilders recommend (or insist) that an in-line filter be placed in the return line to the pump or it voids the warranty. I got my pump from Rockauto and went with one remanufactured by Delco-Remy (at double the cost) because it was a Genersl Motors pump originally. Reading the description of the services it was more thorough than the others. My thought was they should know what they're doing because they made them originally. There are too many rebuilders out there taking shortcuts and putting out bad parts. As a side nore, a sticker said it was remanned in Mexico and that's ok with me as long as it is quality work. So far, knock on wood, it's still good after 100 miles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
