pvfahrer Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 Hi folks, My power steering pump started to make noises and i am finding metal shavings in the oil. I was trying swap the pump with another pump that I got from the junk yard, only to find that the bracket had a larger bolt pattern. Can anybody help me to identify the pump that I need? The bracket that I have has the larger bolt pattern it differs maybe 3/8 - 1/2inch from the other pump that I got from the junk yard. The engine is a ej22 obd1 with two large connectors, so probably 1993-1994. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pvfahrer Posted January 31, 2021 Author Share Posted January 31, 2021 I did a bit more digging, apparently the pump i got from the junkyard with he small bolt patter was 90-92 and my engine is 93-94.. Would this make sense that the early engines have the smaller bolt pattern and the later ones have the larger one? Also would you folks in general recommend rebuilding the old pump or just go with a rebuild/new one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john in KY Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 Would replacing your bracket with the one on the junkyard engine solve this problem? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pvfahrer Posted January 31, 2021 Author Share Posted January 31, 2021 technically yes, but i ordered the other one from ebay. I ordered a rebuild pump for the right year from rockauto now. fingers crossed this one pans out, otherwise i have to return it.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
