Paul Falabella Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 What's the easiest way to get the P/S pump off? Remove shroud and pull pulley? Or remove pump with brackets?Gear puller doesn't clear shroud.Thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
old-tank Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 Remove pump with bracket; just two bolts ( that by the way go into a water cavity ) vs 6 bolts to detach the shroud from the radiator, 4 bolts to remove the radiator after you take off 3 hoses...then the shroud can be removed. Or you can detach the shroud, remove fan belts, fan and pulleys...then the shroud can be removed.Willie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Falabella Posted August 19, 2012 Author Share Posted August 19, 2012 Thanks for the heads up Willie,woulda pulled those bolts without draining the rad. Gaskets between the pump and body were thin and saturated so I'm gonna leave the pump alone and just change the gaskets for now. No shaft play and turns freely. Pulley is only painted on one side,that right?Wanted to get the pump to head bracket off to paint, but it does not feel like it today,even after consuming half a can of WD40.

old-tank Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 Bracket is engine color, pump is black, pulley is plated both sides.Willie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
