Can anyone help here? 2004 Merc 5.7L with 2007 Remanufactured Lower drive. When I hook a clear hose between the power steering cooler and the thermostat housing, large air bubbles are being pumped to the engine over 3000 RPM. Pump housing is torqued to 60 inlb, I used RTV Ultra Black on the pump plate, the pump plate is the "new design, with a rubber gasket fused to both sides of it. The way I see it, there is only 2 places that the pump could suck air. From the top of the cover were the shaft goes through, or from under neath the cover were the plate is. Any help is much appreciated.
