I noticed recently that my power steering pump was chattering when I took excessively sharp turns. I looked to see if the belt was either too loose or too tight. Upon inspection I noticed that the locking nut that slides through the slot and the adjustment bolt that changes the tension were fine and the belt tension was fine. However, the belt was not lined up properly and I noticed that the power steering pump was pulling away from the engine block. When I got under the car I noticed that the two bolts that mount the power steering pump to the engine block had loosened from vibration and fallen out. I need to go back in there and put some lock tite on the bolts and reinstall them but I don't even have 1 left to know what to get. I know that it is a plain hex head bolt but I'm not sure on length or thread pattern. I even called a few dealerships and checked my Alldata but nobody seems to know the length and thread pattern of these two bolts. I'd really hate to install a bolt that has the wrong thread pattern or length because if I strip that then I'm in big trouble. Anybody replaced this recently or know which bolt I need? I'd like to replace it ASAP because it is definitely not flowing correctly and the steering is crap.
