notnoRmal · Jan 5th, 2019, 11:35

Hi All. I've been a member for a few years now and never posted, but this forum has provided me with so much information.Its embarrassing to now post wanting help. My Indie Dealer is fitting a new power steering pump (new from Volvo) but he doesn't have the pulley tools to fit. does anyone know where I can purchase/borrow one. I am in the Camberley area.
My car is a V70R 1998 and I think the part numbers are 9995443, 999444

I recently bought some Volvo tools from Skandix in Germany for the C70.

They were very easy to deal with and the tools arrived a couple of weeks after ordering. I don't know if they will have the tools you need, but it might be worth a look.

I thought the PAS pumps came with the pulley already fitted ?

I thought they did too!!! but its a genuine one direct from volvo.

I will check out Skandix

Not usually supplied with the pulley...Found this, which may help...

Please note, when installing the pulley to this pump unit a special tool must be used which screws into the centre of the shaft, so that pressure is not put onto the oil seal or internals of the pump. The pulley may not be pressed on in the normal manner, as this will immediately damage the seal and possibly the pump unit itself. This occurrence would not be covered by the warranty

Thanks for that information" Volvo Again"

I will have to scrap plan B then, which was to take it to an old school mechanic I know who's motto is "there is always a way" !!!

Would it not be easier to get a used pump complete with pulley?

notnoRmal · Jan 6th, 2019, 14:33

I'm trying to find one right now, there are so many different ones out there!

notnoRmal · Jan 6th, 2019, 14:34

1998 was a change over year I think, just got to be careful I don't get the wrong one.

Make sure you check the diameter of the pulley on the old pump & match it - there are different diameter pulleys out there, which affect the length of the belt and the position of the tensioner wheel when the belt is fitted.
