Hi, got the timing belt off and was thinking it would be a good idea to change out the water pump while I'm in there. The engine has only 50 G on it but better safe than sorry.
Question, chiltons claims you have to take off the motor mount to get enough clearance to remove the water pump.
Is there enough room to take it out without unbolting the motor pump?
It looks like it will clear but if it doesn't I may skip doing that until I have to.

Never Mind, I figured I had better do it no matter what, and it came out toward the bottom of the car with plenty of room to spare.

The book probably said that because you are supposed to remove the motor mount in order to get the timing cover off. Once the cover is off, there si plenty of room.
