I am in the process of removing the power steering pump. I have removed the pulley, fan, belts, and the three mounting bolts on the front of the bracket holding the pump. The pump does not come off. There appears to be at least one bolt holding the pump on in the back.
This bolt is not reachable. The manual says some models require the bracket and pump to be removed as a unit.
The manual does not show or tell how this is done.
What I need is a drawing showing the bracket and which bolts to take off, etc.

Thanks

I dont have a diagram, but if it has A/C, romove the A/C mounting bolts and set the compressor out of the way, do not discharge the A/C. This should give you access to all the P/S mounting bolts.
