2000 Dodge Ram 3500 Cummins Diesel: Oil Leak issues?

The oil leak is noticed between Vacuum Pump and Power steering Pump.

Yes many others too have noticed this.

First understand the theory.


There is an insert/sleeve of sorts right behind the seal that is in the rear of the vacuum pump.

The insert/sleeve should be pulled out along with the seal out the rear of the vacuum pump and then the new seal installed and then the insert/sleeve should be re-installed.


There is a seal kit for the vacuum pump. You have to remove the vacuum and poower steering pumps and replace the seals.The kit is available at auto parts store. It costs $104, there are instructions in the kit.To follow the procedure.

Some users only replace the faulty seal,instead of replacing all seals.
As per there say,why to replace all seals when only one or two are worn out and faulty.At local parts store one seal costs approx $7 and complete kit comes for $104.

But i suggest replacing all seals.Because first getting faulty is indication,that others are also nearing towards end.But still if you get confirmed that other seals are still good,then replacing only the faulty seal is not a bad idea.


You will still need the gasket between the vacuum pump and the timing cover, and I beleive another seal for when you disassemble the vacuum pump, plus the shaft seal. That is why everything comes in a kit.

To remove the pump follow the instructions mentioned below:---------
Here are the instructions on removing the pump. After  the pump is out remove the boltls that hold the pump together, seperate the pump halves. Drive the seal out by using a socket and hammer, drive the seal out with the pump drive rotor. Clean it all up, put the pump drive back in, drive the new seal in, and reassemble.


REMOVAL

Disconnect battery negative cables.
Position drain pan under power steering pump.
Disconnect vacuum and steering pump hoses.
Disconnect lubricating oil feed line from fitting at underside of vacuum pump
Remove lower bolt that attaches pump assembly to engine block
Remove bottom, inboard nut that attaches adapter to steering pump. This nut secures a small bracket to engine block. Nut and bracket must be removed before pump assembly can be removed from block.
Remove upper bolt that attaches pump assembly to engine block
Remove pump assembly from vehicle.

NOTE: The vacuum pump and adapter are serviced as an assembly and must not be seperated.
Remove the remaining three power steering pump to adapter mounting nuts
Gently, remove the steering pump from the adapter. Use caution not to damage the oil seal in the adapter body .
NOTE: Make sure the two pump spacers are present before assembling power steering pump to adapter.
Aline the steering pump drive dog with the slot in the vacuum pump drive assembly, slide the steering pump into place on the adapter.Use care not to damage the oil seal in the adapter body.
Install the three steering pump to adapter nuts, do not install the lower inboard mounting nut at this time. Tighten nuts to 24 N·m (18 ft. lbs.).
Position new gasket on vacuum pump mounting flange Use Mopar® Perfect Seal, or silicone adhesive/sealer to hold gasket in place.
Insert pump assembly upper attaching bolt in mounting flange and gasket. Use sealer or grease to hold bolt in place if necessary.
Position pump assembly on engine and install upper bolt Tighten upper bolt only enough to hold assembly in place at this time.
Working from under vehicle, install pump assembly lower attaching bolt. Then tighten upper and lower bolt to 77 N·m (57 ft. lbs.).
Position bracket on steering pump inboard stud. Then install remaining adapter attaching nut on stud. Tighten nut to 24 N·m (18 ft. lbs.).
Connect oil feed line to vacuum pump connector and tighten line fitting.
Connect steering pump pressure and return lines to pump. Tighten pressure line fitting to 30 N·m (22 ft. lbs.).
Connect vacuum hose to vacuum pump.
Connect battery cables, if removed.
Fill power steering pump reservoir and Purge air from steering pump lines

See the help diagram shown below:-----

Honda Headlight Assembly Removal

The procedure for Old model Honda HeadLight assembly Removal.

In this chapter the details and help diagrams are also provided for Pre-1995 after 1995 and Latest Honda Head light bulb removal and diagrams.Please View that also.This will give you complete idea about what difference is there between today's Honda Headlamp assembly and old model Honda Head Lamp assemblies.


The complete detailed step by step procedure.

The details covers MAIN TOPIC Honda Accord/Prelude 1984-1995.
AND OTHER MISCELLANEOUS TOPICS FOR Honda/Prelude after 1995 and very Latest headlamp difference.

The Front Bumper has to be removed,that gives you complete and easiest access to replace headlight assembly.

Dont pull Headlight assembly,once you view it.There are delicate connectors that are to be disconnected first.Its a plug in/plug out type wire connectors.First disconnect the connectors,then remove screws and you can now remove complete headlight assembly.


Headlights

First Know and Understand About the Bulb/Headlamps:---


There are two general styles of headlamps, the sealed beam and replaceable bulb type. The sealed beam is by far the most common and includes almost all of the circular and rectangular lamps found on vehicles built through the 1980s. The sealed beam is so named because it includes the lamp (filament), the reflector and the lens in one sealed unit. Sealed beams are available in several sizes and shapes. All Honda vehicles covered in this information except the 1990-95 Accord and 1992-95 Prelude use sealed beam headlights. These latest Accords and Preludes use replaceable bulbs in fixed housings.

NOW GO THROUGH THE 
REMOVAL & INSTALLATION PROCEDURE



Sealed Beams.
To understand the procedure 
See Figures 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6
FIG : Fig. 1: Headlamp mounting on 1984-85 Accords

Fig. 2: Headlamp mounting on 1986-89 Accords and 1984-91 Preludes
old model headlight system

CAUTION:--- Most headlight retaining rings and trim bezels have very sharp edges. Wear gloves. Never pry or push on a headlamp; it can shatter suddenly.Go slow and do it carefully.

Some car models have popping up or spring retracting headlamps.

On cars with pop-up or retracting headlamps, turn the ignition switch OFF . Operate the retractor switch on the dash to bring the headlight doors up. The headlights should be off when the doors are up.
Remove the headlight bezel (trim).

On 1984-85 Accord, the trim involves the one piece lamp surround and corner molding.



honda headlamp

Fig. 3: Remove the screws securing the headlight bezel

The sealed beam is held in place by a retainer and either 2 or 4 small screws. Identify these screws before applying any tools. Do not confuse the small retaining screws with the larger aiming screws. There will be two aiming screws or adjustors for each lamp. (One adjustor controls the up/down motion and the other controls the left/right motion.) Identify the adjustors and avoid them during removal. If they are not disturbed, the new headlamp should be in identical aim to the old one.
Using a small screwdriver (preferably magnetic) and a pair of needle-nose pliers if necessary, remove the small screws in the headlamp retainer.

Fig. 4: Remove the screws securing the retaining ring. Be sure not to disturb the adjusting screws

A HELPFUL TIP:---A good kitchen or household magnet placed on the shank of the screwdriver will provide enough grip to hold the screw during removal.


Remove the retainer and the headlamp may be gently pulled free from its mounts. Detach the connector from the back of the sealed beam unit and remove the unit from the car.

Connect the negative battery cable and turn the headlights on. Check both high and low beam function. Reinstall any components removed for lamp access.

2004 Dodge Intrepid: How to replace Thermostat?

Where is thermostat located and how to replace it.

Its not a easy procedure to replace thermostat.

If you have a faulty thermostat, your engine will either overheat or not get hot enough.


The thermostat is located on the lower left side of the engine closer to the front of the engine.
To replace thermostat you will need to put it on a hoist and probably remove the engine mount and/or alternator to get to the thermostat housing.That's the only access to replace thermostat.

See the diagram shown below for thermostat location :----
