Water Pump Removal

[ralph92ZR1]

Need some advice. I am removing the water pump to replace the gasket. Have all the bolts loose. To revove the A/C compressor bolt from the pump housing, is it the bolt going down vertical from the left side of the A/C pulley housing as you look at the front to back? Or is it the bolt going in from the water pump housing toward the engine? What is a good way to break the pump loose from the gasket since there is not a good surface of the pump housing to tap with a rubber hammer??
:cheers: Thanks for the advice !!!

Ralph a slight tapping with a rubber mallet should free it. Just remember to keep track of where all those bolts go as they are all varying sizes and lengths. I cant remember on the bolts but I believe both need to go.
