After about 19 tries, I think I got the PS pump back together.
I checked all the measurements as the manual described and it was all within tolerance.
I think my problem may have been the large O-ring (seen in the top image) not staying in place and then being presses against the inner movements.
I used some Vaseline to hold the O-ring in place this time and re-assembled.
It does not seem to turn as easily as before but that may be my imagination.
Its setting now on the table with some fluid to see if it leaks.
A new question:
The blurry image on the bottom has some different door parts.
I know where the top two pieces go. They go inside the door, near the top, to prevent the window from going up to far.
The middle piece also goes inside the door, right about in the center to prevent the window from going to low.
I have no clue where the bottom piece goes. Any suggestions?
