I'm just putting the last ancillaries back on the engine and haven't got a clue which plate or bracket tensions the power steering pump?

Can anyone post a picture of how a Mk 1 power steering pump is tensioned?

It's pretty much the last job before the engine goes back in the car....

Thanks in advance.

I could actually do that as I have a Saxo steering pump. What's involved in changing it over?

Do you need to run extra cables and buy mounting brackets, etc? Do you have to cut a new hole in the bonnet?

Thanks for the photo's. Do you know where these tensioning parts go in relation to the pump?
