IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR POWER STEERING PUMP
Follow these procedures to ensure that the system is filled and purged correctly.
Prior to starting the car, fill the pump reservoir with power steering fluid. Use fluid designed for use in
power steering; brake or hydraulic fluid is not an acceptable substitute.
With your car in “park”, the emergency brake engaged, and the engine running, SLOWLY turn the
steering wheel all the way to the right and then all the way to the left. With the help of a second person
and using a long transmission funnel to insure that you are safely clear of moving parts, simultaneously
pour power steering fluid into the reservoir while continuing to cycle the steering wheel. Do this until
the reservoir is properly filled and the fluid level remains constant. Fully tighten the cap on the reservoir.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR AC COMPRESSOR
All charging procedures should be performed by a licensed and certified technician. Installer and
technicians should read this sheet and all component instructions carefully before starting work. Please
call if you have any technical questions before, during or after the installation. Our knowledgeable staff
will be glad to assist you with any questions you have.
WARNING: Do not connect power to the AC clutch wire without first connecting hoses and charging the
system. Serious damage to your compressor can occur and the warranty will be voided.
The Sanden A/C compressor supplied with your Eddie Motorsports S.drive kit is pre-filled with oil and
Nitrogen charged from the factory to insure proper lubrication of the internals during storage and
transport. Do not remove the block off plate on top of the compressor until you are ready to install the
hoses and charge the system.
Refrigerant
The Sanden A/C compressor supplied with your Eddie Motorsports S.drive kit is compatible with 134a
refrigerant which is commonly used in late model and aftermarket A/C systems. All part warranties are
voided if any refrigerant other than R134a is used. If your car is equipped with its original A/C system
and components, it will be necessary to convert your system to use 134a. Consult a reputable A/C
system manufacturer for details on this conversion. We recommend the factory air experts at Classic
Auto Air 877-342-552
System Charging Tips & Warnings PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE CHARGING YOUR A/C!
1. Please keep in mind that regardless of you or your technician’s experience, the charging processes for
your Sanden pump will vary greatly from stock OEM systems. Failure to follow these steps and proper
charging procedures will result in an improper installation or damaged item and WILL VOID YOUR
WARRANTY!
2. DO NOT ADD OIL! All new Sanden compressors contain a full system charge of oil.
3. Before charging the system and putting power to the compressor, it is necessary to clear the oil from
the compressor head. With the belt removed and the lines hooked up, manually turn the compressor
clutch hub (not the pulley) a minimum of 10 complete revolutions to clear the oil.
4. DO NOT CHARGE THE SYSTEM IN LIQUID FORM. Unlike later model vehicles, doing so will direct
liquid refrigerant into the compressor piston chamber, causing damage to the compressor reed valves
and/or pistons, as well as potentially seizing the compressor. Doing so voids all warranty claims.
5. USE A CHARGING STATION TO EVACUATE AND CHARGE YOUR SYSTEM
