From Allen McClure: Things you will need Step 1 Disconect the battery (if you can't do this procedure
without a picture, please click
HERE) Step 2 Removing as much of the fluid from the reservoir as
possible. I used a syringe that I picked up from the local farm and feed store
to help with this. Step 3 Remove the coolant hoses that run in front of the pump. Step 4 Remove the belt. Use a 1/2 socket and ratchet. Wile pushing
down on the ratchet with your right hand, use your left to remove the belt from
the alternator pulley. Step 5 Remove the alternator. Start with the back side and remove the
4pin plug. Then the positive wire unbolts with a 1/2 socket. Now theres two
bolts that hold the alternator on. One top one lower. both 1/2 remove them and
the alternator will be free. Set it aside. Step 7 With the alternator removed look through the bracket and you
will see this fitting. Step 8 remove 4 1/2 bolts that hold the pump to the bracket. |
Step 6 On the power steering pump reservoir there are two hoses. Use
pliers to remove the one closest to the front of the car. 
Step 9 Pull,wiggle,tug the pump free. Notes: When reinstalling the
pump use a quality fluid to refill the new pump and reservoir. Its a personal
choice, but I like the Valvoline Synthetic blend. Once the old pump is out take
some time and clean the bracket area where the pump sits and anywhere the old
pump was leaking and anywhere you may have spilled or lost fluid.
