Re: Oil pump change
Per the service manual, if she has a 3.0L, 12V Vulcan engine, the procedure does not require removing the engine from the car. Doesn't even hint that the procedure would be any easier with the engine out. In fact, the oil pump replacement is listed in the "In-vehicle service" section of the manual.
On the 3.0L 24V Duratech and SHO engines, it's not so clear whether or not the engine needs to be removed to replace the pump. There are steps for replacing the oil pump screen and inlet tube in the "in-vehicle service" section, but not the pump itself. I was not able to quickly find the procedures for replacing the pump on these engines.
