I've tried the usual trick of removing the engine mounts and jacking and lowering the engine, but no joy.

I used to be able to access VIDA for the workshop manual, but that is no longer an option, unfortunately.

Has anybody done the job on this engine/chassis combination successfully before? If so, how did you manage to remove the water pump, please?

Cheers.


you don't need to replace the water pump on these, they last forever as long as they don't leak or have rough feeling when turning. I have never come across a faulty one since they were introduced on the 960 33 years ago in my experience working on them professionally! .
