Looking to replace seal ring from water pump to cylinder head. Gotta get the PS pump and tensioner off to get access to the front lower water pump bolt. car is in the garage in pieces...
PS: Can't get the bottom front bolt off to move the PS pump out of the way. Advice? Do I need to remove the pulley? If yes, how? I can't seem to break the three pulley bolts.
Tensioner: Can I swing it down or must I remove it completely?
Water pump: doing all of this to get the PITA front lower bolt off. Suggestions anyone?
Thanks.
