Water pump blues
#16
I poped my wp gear out with a quick pop with a claw end of a hammer, but I've heard others didn't get so lucky. Its just pressed in once the retainer bolts are removed. I've even heard of the bearings in the rear section coming apart upon removal thereby forcing you to remove the intake manifold to fish them out. Just giving you worst case scenario so there won't be any surprises. If you are a well versed shade tree machanic and have all the tools its should be no prob, just time consuming.
