Were tring to get the guts out of the old water pump. It was only on the car for a couple months. I cant get the guts out. I tried 2 different pumps, and even used a press, to no avail. How have you guys gotten the guts out of your pumps??

 

A big Hammer! I used a punch and a 20lb weight.

 

I used a hammer also. The drive was really in there, i used a socket that fit perfect over the drive and just pounded the fawk out of it.

 

I used my hydraulic press with no drama!

 

You need a Hyd press, otherwise you can stress fracture the waterpump.

 

Impact hammer. $20 at harbour freight.

 

I used a punch and a nice hammer. I didnt know if it was suppost to come out that way, so I didnt want to damage it.

 

Ya got to drive it from the right way and what you see may not be right. Try it the other way.

 

Pull the inspection cover, heat the impeller with a propane torch, knock out the shaft with a punch and hammer. Should take about 3 whacks.

 

I was refering to the first time... before I made this thread. Its allready in the housing, and on the motor now... lol.

 

 

here ya go...
