Just got it back together; reasonably mechanically inclined but this has been one of the most time consuming things I've ever done on this car (including the PCV valve).
I will do a write up when I get over it; took a few pictures along the way but almost gave up. Couldn't get the bolt out of the bottom of the pump! Couldn't get a flare wrench on it because of a bracket on the pump and couldn't take the pump off either. On my last effort, I pulled out the trusty vise grips and gave it all I had and it broke free.
Almost as much fun trying to route the cumbersome piece of crap back in.
Good times; almost 9 hours this weekend so far. Still have to bleed it; wish me luck.
