Hi guys, i have just replaced a water pump and removed the studs from the old pump the best i could with the tools available (pliers and WD40), but could only get 3 out so the pulley and fan are only held in by 3 bolts at the moment...is there a tool or an easy way to get these studs out? thanks

screw 2 nuts onto the stud and undo the bottom nut

the dickhead at the shop must have given me the wrong one then. god damn i hate when that happends. i went to buy a little compressor from an auto shop the other day, and went through 3 hoses and 2 pumps before one was right, then checked the inflator yesterday and it doesnt work, but theyre closed today. pissed off, im going to the dunes today, bloody lucky i tested it all and bloody lucky i have a spare.

It's nice in Brisbane!!!

You can just use bolt's to hold fan & pulley on, that's what mine has, same same when you think about it..
