Reassembly
1. Install the spool into sleeve from the chamfered
end (end opposite the cross hole).
2. Insert spool into sleeve until end is flush with the
chamfered end of the sleeve. Inserting the spool
too far into the sleeve may allow the spool O-ring
to contact the sharp edges of the sleeve cross
hole and damage the O-ring.
3. After reassembly, insert driveshaft and check
pump rotor resistance to turning - housing halves
can shift/turn during reassembly. Align scribe
marks carefully.
