Yes I have a 300E. The 260E is the same and all 300E's with a 103 engine.

Good luck,
All right, thanks. I found the third bolt on the bottom front left of the pump. Actually, what I did was to losen the 'nut' on the rear which allows the ps pump to swing sideways out of the way. I can see the bottom left bolt now on the water pump ..... sure can't fit a socket inbetween the tensioner box and the water pump.... I guess the tensioner box needs to be losend after all. Can anyone comment ??? Am I missing something simple?

I plan to write up the 'complete' instructions for the pump R&R for future marginal wrenchers like myself who plan a water pump replacement
