Remove the 2 slotted screws at the end of the motor. Now, here's the trick! Apply a bit of penetrant to the space where the white plastic that holds the wiring meets the main body of the motor. Make scratch marks on the outside so it goes back together the same way. Use a knife or knives to get this started, rock back and forth and make a gap. Keep the white plastic in place against the part of the motor that leads to the water pump. Gradually, you will get about 3/16" to 1/4" space and you will be able to lift the magnets and housing free of the rotor. Continue to go slowly, and leave the magnets exactly where they are in the housing, there is no need to move them. They want to stay where they are anyway, but if you do remove them from the housing, you have to figure out how the clips hold them in.
