Maval 97166M Power Steering Pump

Maval Remanufactured Power Steering Pump 97166M

The Maval 97166M remanufactured power steering pump is built for vehicles that use a reservoir-equipped hydraulic steering setup. It is a direct replacement for select Chevrolet Cavalier, Pontiac Grand Am, Pontiac Grand Prix, Pontiac Sunfire, Oldsmobile Alero, Achieva, Cutlass, Cutlass Supreme, Cutlass Ciera, and Cutlass models with variable effort steering applications.

As a remanufactured power steering pump from Maval, this unit is focused on restoring hydraulic assist and steering response in the original system layout. The reservoir is included, while the pulley is not, so the original pulley must be transferred when required by the application.

What It Helps Resolve

• Loss of power steering assist
• Whining or noisy hydraulic steering operation
• Low or inconsistent steering pressure
• Fluid leakage from a worn pump assembly
• Heavy steering effort in GM variable effort steering systems

Installation Notes

• Verify the vehicle’s steering configuration and connector style before installation.
• The pulley must be transferred with the proper pulley removal and installation tool where required.
• Some replacement pumps may use two connector types; follow instruction sheet 656840 for the correct setup.
• Confirm reservoir and pulley requirements against the original unit before removal.

Maval remanufactured steering components are rebuilt for service replacement use and cataloged for direct application matching. The 97166M is identified for the listed Chevrolet, Pontiac, and Oldsmobile applications, including 2005 Chevrolet Cavalier and select Grand Am and Alero models.
