Fan Pump bad

[94bmw]

Apparently the LS uses hydrolic pressure to turn the engine cooling fan. The pulley on this Fan Pump is wobbling and I need to replace it. I don't want it to go out in the middle of nowhere! Has anyone ever done this before? Any suggestions or tips? I'm hoping that the pulley is just bent or its about $350 for the pump. I have to remove the generator before I can get to the pump so any suggestions on removing the generator would be appreciated as well. Thanks.

I would recommend signing up with alldata.com or buying the OEM shop manuals. I wouldn't dare take on any LS job without a knowledge base to go buy.

I decided to have a mechanic I trust do the work. I'm running out of time. Thanks for all of the advice.

wise choice. I will be the first to defer the arduous tasks to the certified mechanics esp when it is a critical component.
