This goes on for like 30 lines. Can you turn the "public key block" off 
please? It buggs! Thanks in advance!


OK, back to the water pump. Is this on a 16V or 8V? Which A/C compressor do 
you have? (Square or round pump) 
The belt for the A/C comes off at the crank. There should be 4 nuts that 
holds the outter V pulley on and remember to secure the spacers so when you 
put it all back together its a simple bolt on procedure. (Otherwise you 
will be chsanging spacers to get the right belt tension on the A/C belt.) 
The water pump comes off as a unit. (Pump and housing.) Theres about 5 bolts 
that hold the pump housing to the block. Once you have all of the bolt
s out and hoses disconnected, it should come out. 
HTH!
