Water pump help

**jetaws6** · 07-31-2010, 10:22 AM

Im trying to get my water pump off but it feels like its stuck on something or am i missing a bolt. I removed all six bolts that it said to on ls1howto and the belt but is there anything left or is it just hard to beak lose?

Double check to ensure you have all the hoses and bolts removed, then it will take a bit of prying to break the factory seal. You can use a prybar and a mallet or a screwdriver, just becareful around the Alum not to gouge or damage the mounting surface.

yep, probably just stuck on there. If you have all the bolts out and hoses off just grab it on either side and yank on it like it owes you money.
