Volvo seawater pump

[johnphilip]

I recently queried a leak from the seals on the water pump on my Volvo 2020. Good advice from the forum including a link to the manual from VicS, thank-you. BUT the manual does not show removal of the pump. The manual like my operators manual show a pump held with 2 bolts. Mine has 4, 2 are easy(ish) but the other 2 are studs from behind the pump into tapped holes in the front of the pump. Access to one of these is difficult and the other impossible unless I remove the engine mount. This seems stupid, or is it me, am I missing a trick. anyone else encountered this?

I've had that problem before! Support the engine with blocks of wood, remove the mount & take off the pump!
