      Eric,

      I have a 97 Accord that has a slight power steering pump leak. I noticed the trace of oil on the underside of the hood.
      Any chance that you can put together a video on how to replace the seals on one of these pumps?

      Seems like a common problem on Hondas that many can benefit from.

      Thanks,

      Karl56

        The problem is mostly due to over tightening of the belt. In addition sometimes a grove is worn on the drive shaft which would require it’s replacement. If that was the case the cost of the parts could exceed the price of a replacement pump.

        Rebuilding power steering pumps is not something I often do, in fact I never do it. If I run into a problem I usually replace them and if I need to save $ I use a salvage part.

        Thank you for your request but to be honest it’s not likely I’ll make that video. I may make one of the dissection of a pump at some point but not for rebuilding.

          Hey Eric is it an absolute MUST to use Honda OEM power fluid only?

            Yes. Honda makes a special fluid for their power steering systems that must be used or problems may result.

              As a follow up to this topic, I purchased the seals/o rings from local honda dealer and completed the rebuild.
              With some pictures/write ups from other sources and a pump break down diagram from alldata, everything went well and the pump has no more leaks. banana:
