This document is a screenshot of a page from the 1998 Ford Contour/Mercury Mystique Workshop Manual, viewed in Microsoft Internet Explorer. It shows steps 7 through 10 of a service procedure (part of a power steering pump installation/reassembly sequence, based on the album filenames ps2–ps7). Step 7 instructs installing the powertrain mount bracket, accompanied by an engine-bay illustration (MPM1301101) with a torque specification of 83 Nm for the bracket fasteners. Step 8 says to remove the powertrain support, and step 9 to install the powertrain cover, shown in illustration MPV2304090 with arrows marking three fastener locations. Step 10 covers installing the power steering line and hose to the power steering pump, broken into three sub-steps: connect the power steering high-pressure tube (callout 1), connect the power steering hose (callout 2), and attach the tube retaining bracket (callout 3), with a partially visible illustration of the pump area. A reader learns the reassembly order, the 83 Nm torque value for the powertrain mount bracket, and the connection points for power steering lines on a 1998 Contour/Mystique.
