Just like it sounds. How do i take it apart?
Should the back be tight. Is the threaded hole in the middle used as a jacking screw?
I've only take a few apart, but they've all been real snug. I use a bolt in the center as a pry point (carefully, of course).
6mm bolt in the center, capture the bolt head in a vice and pull real hard on the two "ears" that stick out. It will pop right apart.
thanks
hi,
I have not been able to even remove the cover of the oil pump...
concerned about prying and damaging something.
the following image is PRIOR to my removing the engine bar and mounting brackets
tks

Remove the motor mount brackets, then the 4 nuts/washers on the pump itself. Those ears on the pump are for prying. Evenly pry the pump out. Be sure you have a new gasket and oring. The pump comes apart after you've removed it from the engine. BTW, that's NOT the pump cover you see in the picture, it's the pump body.

I had to loosen the case parting line fasteners to get the pump out. Trying without loosening the fasteners resulted in broken ears. Ok cause the pump shaft was failed and I had to get a replacement in any case.
After the pump is out and the 4 nuts are off, tapping on a wood block seems to loosen up the whole assembly.
thanks for the replies..........I actually figured out something on my own....
I used the ears and two BFSD's and pried it out, back and forth until freeeeeee...
it looked ok inside and I just replaced the gasket and put it back together..
tks again.
