Hi Guys,
So, I thought I would start my winter jobs with a simple one - removing my curvy's water pump cover for refinishing.
Haynes Manual read (useless), coolant drained, hoses disconnected, three screws out and a little tap on the hose stub and it starts to come off but the backplate is stuck to it and there is something stopping the backplate from coming off the crankcase with the outer cover. At this point as there are no flats on either casting to tap against, I thought it best to stop and ask the collective.
Any advice greatly appreciated thanks.
