My PS pump is slowly (at the moment…) dying. I can tell from the leaking fluid down the side of the engine block. While I am ordering parts to build a replacement main return line, I am doing some research into replacing the pump.
1) is it generally better to go new than reman ? I am assuming I would go with the Motorcraft part. I don't want a noisy PS pump.
2) Whats the deal with the main union line and the teflon inserts ? The factory manual claims you need a special tool, but I am having a hard time visualizing why.
Sorry if this is a dumb question - a while back I found some threads on this subject, but since the new BB upgrade, I have had a hard time relocating some of these threads.
thanks,
