hub of the power steering pulley is flush with
the end of the power steering pump input
shaft.
I. Install the supplied flanged plastic idler with
dust cover onto the lower idler pilot. Install
the factory idler (without rear dust cover) from
the stock mounting bracket onto the upper
idler pilot. Tighten both idlers using the sup-
plied M10 x 25 mm screws.
J. With the supplied 6-rib belt encircling it as
shown in Fig. 8-f, install the supplied alumi-
num 6-rib pulley onto the jackshaft on the
front of the mounting bracket using the key,
retainer, and flathead cap screw (with blue
Threadlocker on the bolt threads.)
K. Complete the routing of the accessory drive
belt as shown in Fig. 8-f. Torque the super-
charger pulley retaining screw to 30 ft-lbs by
grasping the belt on either side of the pulley
while tightening.
L. Secure the throttle position sensor wires on
the passenger side of the throttle body away
from possible contact with the accessory
drive belt.
M. Look closely at the toothed pulley and belt on
the back side of the mounting bracket. Rotate
the small hose clamp located on the factory
coolant bleed hose away from the belt to
avoid possible contact.( See Fig. 8-e.)
N. If necessary, re-install the ABS unit.
Re-connect the factory brake lines and har-
ness connector. Bleed the brakes per the fac-
tory vehicle service manual. If clearance
between the supercharger and ABS unit
becomes a problem during supercharger
installation, use the supplied 12mm washers
to space the ABS pump/bracket assembly
forward.
