I am going to assume you have a new pump in hand. As you hold the pump, look at the four holes that the mounting studs will protrude through, there are two threaded holes at the sides, these are for removal purposes. Thread two 6x1.00x30mm bolts into these to push the pump away from the timing cover, and off it comes! Ã â Â
