Ok, 88k on the clock and its time to do some maintenance, the pump is starting to leak and I want to get to it ASAP. It’s the mom-mobile and things get urgent she gives me the orders.

So have any of you gone through the removal of the pump?
Here's some questions.
*What all do I need to remove to get to the pump?
*Is it accessible from the top or from beneath?

Thanks,
Rene

The pump is fairly easy to change. I just had to remove it out of the way so I could change the lower intake manifold gaskets. You first need to remove the belt. One of the lines has a hard connection and the other is a clamp style. Use a 13MM socket and go through the pully of the PS pump and and remove 3 bolts. It will then lift right out. Make sure the replacement pump has a pully on it.....Good Luck
