760 GLE/1987/Replacing P/S Pump

I am replacing my power steering pump with reservoir, and I am just wondering if there is any certain steps or procedures I must take to do this correctly? Or certain tools for this matter. Should I just buy the repair manual for this car?

Re: 760 GLE/1987/My oil light is on for some reason.

Thank you for such a speedy response. LUCKILY! my plug wires look almost new :D thank god... because I've priced those and they are not cheap. Its just basically everything else is crappy looking, mostly to my fuel injectors... But yet again, thank you. I will probably most likely start this project...

Re: It's NOT good...my 1993 960 wagon...crankshaft and more

I am unsure what you mean my "ticking" but I know that if any of your fluids are at all low or empty for your sake. Your car will make a sort of whining and other indescribable noises. I thought it was one of my belts at first but it ended up being my transmission fluid and power steering ...

Re: 760 GLE/1987/My oil light is on for some reason.

Dang wish I would of known this, considering the previous owner of this car obviously didn't take this car to the best garage when it had problems... most of wires are all taped up, have bare spots, and all in all just look like crap. I would like to get this fixed but I am scared it will cost a for...

Re: 760 GLE/1987/Are my Valve Gaskets different shape?

I have some don't worry but yes I did notice that compressor right there in the way ha ha too bad mine doesn't work... I am unsure if power is getting to it :(

But just out of curiosity why must you not touch the hoses?

760 GLE/1987/My oil light is on for some reason.

I recently took my car to the car wash, and since my car has a couple leaks i figured i'd open the hood and spray some engine degreaser in it and then wash it clean with water to get rid of all the build up of the 22 years the car has been alive. So I did! I drove home, and everything was fine. Then...

I was looking online to purchase them and came across these http://www.europartsdirect.com/epc-items.asp but i am not completely sure if i they are the right thing. It just surprises me that my engine ...

Re: 760 GLE/1987/Gets average 16 mpg

Man, thats really odd...I would think they would of put one in there. I mean I have a Brake light and a Parking Brake light... which are both completely unnecessary to me at least. The owners manual says once you reach the red zone you only can drive 25 miles? Thats odd because I just (as in 20 minu...

Re: 760 GLE/1987/Gets average 16 mpg

Im glad someone mentioned a gas light, which reminds me. Does anyone know if my 1987 760 GLE has a gas light? I've driven my car until i am like half way in the red zone of my gas gauge and no gas light has ever turned on, which surprises me because I have a whole dash of lights and switches but non...
