Hello everyone,
Digging further into the 400 ci engine on my 78
NYB to reveal the timing chain, I am having trouble
getting the water pump/housing off. After removing
the bolts holding the pump housing to the block, the
whole thing is stuck. Is it supposed to come off with
some puller? I have banged and prised(as the Brits
say) and heated the housing with a small torch(but
maybe not heated it enough?), but it is stuck. I've
been hesitant to apply too much force or heat...
Any suggestions?
BTW, I learned by doing it that the only way I
could get to the crank pully was to remove the fan
from the end of the water pump.
Thanks for any advice.
