HELP!!! Water Pump stuck!
Saturday, August 03, 2019 9:05 AM
I'm changing out the water pump on my 2002 Sunfire ecotec and the water pump won't pop out. I definitely have the four mounting bolts removed, two rear, and two front, but the right upper side won't break free. I carefully pried open a gap on the lop left side and underneath I have a gap but that top right, nothing. I have the timing gear tool in place and I made sure it wasn't threaded into the sprocket mounting holes. The videos I watched seemed to show it coming out pretty easily, but this is fighting me and I'm afraid to be more forceful and potentially cause damage. What am I missing?

Thanks

Never mind. It just took a little more persuasion.

Thanks
