He didn't rebuild the pump but claims the engine was rebuilt. Aside from some wear and tear it's performing quite well.....time will tell though. There is only an o-ring and teflon washer on the top part of the servo shaft. I did remove the inner sleeve to make sure it wasn't overly scored. Just be careful reinserting as there is a keyway slot that slides over a spot down inside. Just mark the orientation before removing and you should be good. It's surprising that it's just one bolt and the small o-ring holding the pressure on the servo......some have opted to double up the o-ring and eliminate the teflon washer. Yeah you have to drain the tank to do the filters etc. I replaced the small inline filters but they do split apart, and I suppose you could clean the brass filter inside and reuse (I replaced). I went with AW-46 fluid but it takes 10-30 OEM. If you have to do any repairs between oil changes and need to drain the system, you could consider pouring it back in through a filter (that's what I did).  Careful use of a pressure sprayer works for me anyways. I just avoid the electrical connections as much as possible and use the compressor to blow out excess water.</blockquote>
