63 Avanti Power Steering Pump
Recently had my power steering pump cleaned and replaced seals,
But... still leaking. Does this mean the mechanic did not do it
properly, or could there be another issue? It works perfectly fine, as
it did before, just leaking quite a bit.

If you got a kit from SI the shaft seal is probably the offender.
In compairing the new versus the old, I found that new seal wasn't a
double lip type like the old one . CarQuest a seal that looked more
like the old seal, part # 6835 S . It is a bit tricky to install, it
beats buying another kit from SI. Good Luck Lou Cote

Hi, dynolou2. Thanks for the advice on the CarQuest seal. Have
you actually installed this #6835S seal in the Avanti power steering
pump, and then run it? I appreciate your time in replying. Best, John in
Wisconsin

I had a groove worn in a pump shaft where the seal rides. The fix was a speedy sleeve from the bearing supply store.
