I took a better look at that rack linkage pivot bolt today & it isn't really a bolt. It's just a pin with a lock ring on the end. It looks like it's leaking pretty good too, there's a lot of black oily fuel, I think, under the engine & it's leaking when parked onto the driveway. The pin moves in & out about 1/2 to 1 MM & I'm doubting it's supposed to do that! I didn't see anything about it in my Haynes manual. Is there any way I can fix this or is it something a shop needs to take care of? Hope not, because it looks like the entire pump needs to be removed to get the pin out of there, it comes out toward the engine.

Thanks!
