I'd asked this a couple weeks ago but got no replies, has no one ever replaced
a w201 power steering pump?
I have no idea how the hell to get the thing out. I *think* the pully has to
come off, looks like 3 bolts, well I sure as hell can't get 'em off.
I figured I'd get 'em off the replacement tonight to prove thats the way it
goes. Well here I am snorting and fighting with the thing when it occurs to me
I'll have to get 'em off the one actually in the car. Theres absolutely no way
I can hold that pully tight enough to get the bolts off without seriously
mauling the pully. I'd bet with a c-clamp on it I could pull 'em or with an air
gun but theres no place to put the gun in the engine bay. Maybe with 2 wrenches
at the same time?
I'll have to get growing that extra arm!
