water pump dilema

Post by Connor_1994 »

ive got everything i need,
ive hit an impass though, ive got the timing belt and everything off, but to replace my water pump, its behind the engine brass, which is blocked by the power steering pump,

The aircon condensor can be taken out without disconnection. Lift it up and put on radiator. Then you can take out the power steering pump, dont disconnect,just let it drop down. You may lose some fluid out of the container if you arent careful as this will have to be unscrewed as well.

cheers
