Power steering pump for a 1996 Chevy Camaro RS?

This is for my 95 Z, so I'm not sure about other bolt/nut sizes.

1) Remove accessory drive belt ("fan belt")

2) disconnect battery

3) Remove alternator (13mm and 15mm) - don't forget to disconnect the electrical connection underneath

4) I removed the battery altogether (more room later)

5) loosen the 16mm (that is right 16mm) flare nut on the "high pressure" side of the steering pump... THIS WAS A PITA

6) pull back the hose clamp on the low pressure side

7) remove the 2 10mm bolts holding the steering pump to the block (1 and 7 o'clock)... Remove w/ socket and short extension THRU the holes in the pulley.

8) Take steering pump out

9) swap the pulley from your old steering pump to the new one... (I did this at the autoparts store w/ their help).. PITA too... Probably just about as easy to buy a new pulley ($20).

10) Reverse process to reinstall.

11) Top off steering fluid... start car/off, start car/off, etc refilling steering fluid as necessary

12) lots of left/right wheel turns etc to make sure there is no air in the lines (ie bleeding system).

13) Enjoy the fruits of your labor

loosen the 16mm "flare nut" before you loosen the 10mm bolts securing the pump to the block... there is NO room in there, and it SUCKED big time to get that bad boy off... (putting it on wasn't as bad).

How do you repair window wire harness?

You have a problem in one of two places most likely. The switches contacts get worn most often on the driver side and the switch may need replaced or the motor in the door may need replaced. You would have to pull the door panel off and sometimes these motors are difficult to get out. They usually run 40 to 50 dollars at auto zone. If none of these is the problem try a hammer to the window (just kidding).

the wire harness between the doors/chassis always brakes or craks from opening/closing the doors

I found this link with p/n's and pictures along with instructions that appear to be generic to all types of vehicles.

tyclone.com

I've had this problem on a couple of old cars. Believe it or not, my boyfriend simply poured rubbing alcohol on the switch (the one that makes the window go up and down) and the windows worked again. He said it cleaned out the "schmutz." whatever, it worked - and it's a cheap thing to try! No need to remove panels or anything else. You can pry up the switch first and hold it away from the door while pouring if you don't want to spoil the leather or fabric.

On most ford or mercury models if you don't use the window often it will stop working. so all you have to do is guess about were you think the window motor is located and hit the door fairly hard with your hand and it should start working. I used to work at a body shop and I saved probably 100 people money with that little trick.

Hate to say it, but the most likely cause us a worn motor. It will kick the breaker off repeatedly. Remedy is not for the failt of heart, but entirely within the perview of weekend mechanics. Replace the drive motor (and regulator, probably). Get lotsa beer and some sympathetic help.

Its probably your window motor. Too hard for the average person to replace- see a mechanic!

I found mine ('90 626) started shuddering. Obviously a lube problem, my mechanic suggested Graphite Powder. Didn't work. Mechanical Oil worked for less than a week.

what worked was....

ARMOR ALL!!!!!

Brilliant. Slides like a dream for months!

I don't see this response: I spent a few hours learning the hard way that there is, on some cars, a children's window lock switch in the drivers compartment that cuts off power to the rear windows. You don't say which window don't function or if it will roll up. So - if it is off - you can't roll the back windows. RE: 1988 Ford WAgon

How can you tell when the computer or the coil packs on a 95 3.4L Camaro go bad?

is your car not starting but turning check for sparks if no sparks in any of the spark plug wires you have a bad crank shaft position sensor.

well everything works fine now. but the thing that links up to the ODB2 doesn't read out. still not sure what the hell is wrong with that. we found the problem we were having was platinum spark plugs causing really bad misfiring. changed them back to the original ones and now runs smooth.

How do you remove a dash in a 1993 camaro?

I believe there are 5 bolts (7mm) along the top of the dash by the windshield.

The gauge cluster needs to come out along with the center council. there are 5 more

bolts on the drivers side a few behind the gauge cluster a few on the bottom of the

dash on or two will be bigger like 13 mm or so. there are 4 in the center behind the air/heat/fan control. Then there are about 5 on the pass side close to the same as the drivers side. when all the bolts are out your not even half way done. there are about 4 plastic post with locking clips that need to be removed. Then let the fun begin. There is about 15 looms that need to be removed. clips exc. Have fun.

What is the horsepower of a Chevy Camaro RS 2 8L V6?

The horsepower for a 2.8 V6 is 135, torque 18082-84 2.8s have about 115 bhp; 85s and later got fuel injection for 135 bhp

i belive it is 210 horse

i actually reseached your engine and here are the exact specifics.

Engine Configuration V Cylinders 6 Aspiration/Induction Normal Displacement 173.00 CU IN. | 2835.5 cc. | 2.8 L. Horsepower 125.00 BHP (92 KW) HP / Liter 44.6 BHP / Liter Bore 3.50 in | 88.9 mm. | 0.1 m. Stroke 2.99 in | 75.9 mm. | 0.1 m. Fuel Type Gasoline - Petrol

The Chevy Camaro 2.8L specs around 135 horse.

its gotta be less than 145

The 3.4L 1993 camaros engine is rated at about 160hp so this one Id say is around 125-135.

Its not 210hp, that's the v8 you're thinking of. I don't know what the HP actually is tho ... sorry:(

What would cause no spark in 1991 Chevy Camaro RS V6 after replacing spark plugs spark plug wires distributor cap and rotor Motor turns over just no spark?

Heh... sounds like another victim of the VATS antitheft system. Try to crank it and look at your instrument panel. See if the security light comes on. That would be the antitheft system. Those cars are pretty bad for the connections in the ignition cylinder wearing out after a lot of use. Basically the resistor value in the key (you can't miss the chip) has to match up with the value required by the system to start the car. Sometimes the contacts in the ignition cylinder become worn out and an incorrect reading of the resistance is sent. Incorrect resistance = no crank. Also, one of the wires that connect to the ignition cylinder could be broken off and you wouldn't know it. Check them out. Some people measure the resistance of the chip in their key and buy a resistor from radio shack and wire it in on the circuit side of the connector.

check the engine coil first its only a 20 dollar part if still no spark 9 out of ten times its the distributor ive replaced mine twice make sure u have the engine at TDC and not the compression stroke before removing the distributor

You may also want to check the ignition control module. It is located under the distributor cap and the base of the distributor. There are two plugs to disconnect and two small screws that hold it to the base. It is a cheap part, and much cheaper than tearing through the VATS stuff. Replace the module and pray like heck it works.

Do you need a fuel regulator for a carborated motor?

If you are using the stock engine operated fuel pump generally no additional pressure regulation is needed. If you have a high performance electric fuel pump that does not have an integral pressure regulator then one should be added as flooding and poor engine operation could be the result.

Additional answer

If you're interested, the word you used in your question 'carborated' should really be 'carburetted' because the engine type you refer to is one that uses a carburettor rather than fuel injection.

Where is the fuel filter located on a 1992 camaro?
