[AJD] Rebuilding '59 530

[Kenneth Jones]

Would appreciate any assistance that you guys could provide.  I am rebuilding my 530 part by part and am now at the ventilator pump, power steering pump and the friction drive on the fan, with the governor, distributor and starter remaining to be worked on. 
 
  Is it normal to have a slight amount of play between the ventilator pump rotor and the fan shaft keyway?  The rotor has some back and forth movement when installed on the shaft and it appears to be in the key and the keyway.
 
Is that any secret to getting the fan friction disk out of the fan drive cup.  One of the disk's is frozen tight in the cup. I have been using PB Blaster on it but its not budging.  I am concerned about heat since the friction disk appears to be a pot metal.  Any suggestions??
 
 Is the power steering pump normally tight when you attempt to rotate the input shaft?  This pump seems to be really tight and tough to turn.  Any secrets when rebuilding the pump???
 
Thanks 
 
Ken Jones
