I'm heading to a junkyard in the next day or two that has some 300 series turbo cars with engines, and I'd like to pull an injection pump, not only to have as a spare, but also to save it from being scrapped when the car eventually gets crushed.
I tried, with no success, to remove one in a yard a year ago, so obviously I am doing something wrong.
I have the tool to remove the injector lines from the pump. Other than that, I only have "normal" hand tools (I'm a mechanic, so I do have a lot of variety to choose from).
If anyone can advise a 'down and dirty' way of getting the IP off without spending half the day just removing that one part, I'd appreciate it.
Can I just remove the lines, somehow remove the gear from the shaft (leaving gear on the timing chain), and unbolt the IP from the engine case?
Thanks.
