1978 Eleganza w/ 403 engine. I am trying to replace the fuel pump. I looked at the new pump but on the installed one I can not see the the top mounting bolt area. There is a slot in the top mounting area that looks like it was designed to start the bolt and slide the pump under the head. I tried to reverse that procedure removing it and was unsuccessful. I ended up removing both bolts and now I can pull the pump about 1 to 1.5 inches out. Then it hits an AC mounting casting above it. I can not get it to clear the casting.
I know is is a simple job because I watched Al Branscome change a pump on his in about 30 minutes at Bean Station.
I gave up for the night and came home. I was 28 degree when I left. When I came home I looked in the 1977-78 maintenance supplement and all it says under fuel pump is "Correct as Necessary"
