After removing four of the five bolts to replace the water pump I am stuck on number five. It looks like I need to loosen the passenger side upper motor mount. I need to know what size socket to use in order to remove the bolts to get to the water pump. My best guess is an 18mm and I have everything but that size and before I purchase an 18mm socket I would like some conformation. Thank you in advance for any help offered.

Good morning.

Yes, you will need a 18 mm deep socket for the mount bolts. Make sure you use a floor jack and a block of wood to support the oil pan. After removing the mount then you can position the motor to where you need.
