Default Replacing Water Pump
I'm A NEW User To The Site. LOOKED AT IT MANY TIMES BUT NEVER POSTED. I Have A 85 Coupe With A Leaking Water Pump. I Put A New Radiator In Last Year And Had A New Water Pump Sitting There. I Just Figured I Would Put On In At The Time Before Something Happened. It Looked Like I Needed A Special Tool To Get The Ac Pulley Off To Get At One Of The Water Pump Bolts. Can Anyone Tell Me What To Do Here. Thanks

You can remove the compressor off of the engine without pulling the pulley. None of the A/C lines have to be disconnected. Just swing the compressor aside.

RACE ON!!!

Do as CFI said, just have to swing it out of the way.
