Changing the power steering pump reservoir
I'm replacing the power steering pump with a rebuild unit. The rebuilt pump does not include the reservoir so I have to transfer it from the original unit. My Haynes manual states that it requires special tools to transfer the reservoir and they suggest taking it to the dealer. Does anyone have any experience transferring the power steering pump reservoir? Do I really have to take it to the dealer?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Just finished the job and discovered it was very simple to transfer the reservoir from the original power steering pump to the new one. There are 2 clips holding the plastic container to the pump. I had to take the unit to a shop to have the new pulley pressed onto the new pump, other than that, it was simple!
Thanks!
Thanks!
