Default Re: Water pump replace

As Lawrie said bang a socket or one of those 'fit all' sockets the one with all those
fingers. Now with one hand on the ratchet bang the pump housing - good weight hammer counter clockwise the pump will move about 1/2 inch. That bolt usually freezes up at the
pump not the block. Some so bad we stuck a end mill in a drill and milled off the head
of the bolt then wiggled the pump off. Piece a cake with the engine out. sam
