| I know when I did my head gaskets, putting the PS pump back on was a huge PIA. Because I didn't pull the fan, it took me an hour to wrestle that thing back on. I would cut about 1/2" off the top center stud, and use it as merely a locator. Next time, I'm cutting the stud down. | |

| on my rover,the bleed screw/nut!!!!! is a 7/16th box wrench for best results.
I'm hoping i got the suction hose on tight.it should be put back on while u have the pump off the motor.i broke the factory clamps when pulling the hoses off.got some clamps at pep-boys when i got the fluid.
it feels soooooooo much better.....have a good day | |
