succesfully got the water pump out of the car and have found where it was leaking from, fortunatly its not the pump itsself which is still in good nick its just one of the pipes that runs from the thermo and water jackets and heater.
there are three 6 inch bolts that bolt the pump into the block got 2 of them out but the back of the third was rusted in really bad and it snapped. is there specific ways to get this stuff out or do u have to get a specialist to do it? |

| You can use an easy-out to get it out or drill it out and retap it.good luck. |
