I'm installing the CSi water pump on my 94 T/A and i am also doing a cam swap. one i put the new timing chain back on what or how do i get rid of the gear that drives the water pump. i took the 2 hex head screws out but it wont pull out. does anyone know if i can just leave it in it place with a new double roller timing chain?

I followed the directions for the pump install. I didn't remove the shaft though. I'm doing my cam install in the spring and plan on doing it then. Hope this helps.

 

thanks they are say just to use a bar and pop the damn thing out.

 

Just with the intake off...hit it from the back with a socket and a hammer and it will come right off

 

do i need to put a freeze plug in place of the shaft or can i just leave it open which di u so snakeeater?

 

I just knocked that shaft out with a center punch and a hammer, it came out pretty easily. I left the hole open, I was told it didn't matter if you plugged it or not and it's been fine since.

 

Same here. No problems.
