As the title say's How do you clock a power steering pump??

I have never heard of anyone clocking a Supra powersteering pump. Does yours not line up? I know the pulleys are 2 different sizes but the same pump design.

"clocking" meaning the veins in the power steering pump have to be in the same slot they came out of. I'm rebuilding my power steering pump the veins all fell out of the housing and they need to be put back in the same order they came out of, the veins have to be in their own slot you can't mix them up.

I dont mean it doesn't line up, it does. I learned the term "clocking" by a pump rebuilder and a mechanic both used that term.

Study the micro scratching on each vane and slot.
Like a jigsaw puzzle you will eventually find each matching slot they came out of.
