So I'm trying to replace my water pump and can't seem to get the pump pulley off. I loosed and removed the four bolts holding the pulley on, but it won't come off. Am I missing something? Could it be rusted on and just needs a good kick in the ass? Any quick help would be greatly appreciated, since this needs to come off today.

Thanks!

I see from a previous thread that you have a '91.

The pulley should just come right off after the bolts are removed.

It needs some spray on kickass remover.

Yeah... while I was waiting for you guys to respond I just hit it with a socket wrench and it popped right off. Must've just been rusted on. Thanks though.

Yep, brains over brawn is not always the best way to go :D
