Hi
Need a new power steering pump for my fiesta courier. It has the 1.8 gtti endura engine and am wondering if the pump from the other (focus, fiesta hatch etc) models will have the same part? Courier is a.pain as not much oem info that I can find

I'm not sure about swap-ability from different models but there are some cheap aftermarket units available that come without the pulley. Don't be tempted because the pulley is a press fit and is F. tight.

Yea issue is the pulley got bent when I went over a f'ing deep pot hole. So need the whole unit unfortunately... Pas was knackered anyway but didn't really bother me as the van doesn't weigh that much. Just would make sense in a way if those parts were all the same for that particular engine but will have to be careful as don't want to waste a load of money on the wrong part!

If you are not bothered about the PAS & it doesn't work, why not just remove it completely & fit a shorter belt?

Cost under £10

Isn't an undriven PAS rack pretty heavy to drive?

OK, but OP says in his second post that it doesn't work & he wasn't bothered by this.

Yea at the risk of sounding like douche I'm not a small guy so doesn't bother me really. Will change it eventually for the housemate to use it but no big drama bought it without the pump working just now the pulley is bent
