Re: coolant in oil

I got your PM, though you didnt say what engine you had.
What is it soecificly thats keeping you from removing it?

It should come off, you might hav to remove the engine mount, the upper intake, and alternator, to get to the bolts on th epower steering pump.

ITs best to leave the power steering lines hooked up so air doesnt get in the lines.

My Bad!

The power steering pump has to come off to get the intake bolts out.

The pully has three holes in it,
turn the pully till you find all the bolts.

Heres a pick of the pully/holes
