Hello members,

I just recently bought a "Silforty" SR20 93 HB (my first 240sx). While driving home from the sellers house, I notice that the steering was pretty stiff. When I got home, I checked the PS resevoir and it was pretty empty and noticed a leak coming from the PS Pump. Today, I refilled the resevoir. When I turned on the car, I was turning the steering wheel and the PS Pulley was making a noise, then when I shut the car off the pulley came loose.

Here is what I found:

This is the washer that was on the pulleys shaft. Its destroyed and I think thats where the fluid was leaking from.

The location of the washer.

My questions are:

1) Where can I buy this washer and what part number is it?2) What is the name of the washer? 3) Is the washer necessary or can the pulley right back for now?4) What is the pulley's belt connected to?5) Do I need to do something before installing it back on?6) Can I start the car without the pulley and belt on?

Forgot to mention that the PS pump was replaced in 2007. I have the receipt for it.

Any help will be greatly appreciated

I do not think its under warranty. The reason why I said I have the receipt for it being replaced back in 07 from previous owner is because I doubt it that I need a new pump, just this new washer.

But should I really get a new pump? Where can I get one for pretty cheap an does it have to be for an SR20DET?
