So I am working on replacing my timing belt (the dang thing broke on me) and i am having trouble getting the power steering pump lose so that i can get the belt off. I just can't seem to get to the top bolt and was wondering if anyone can give me some helpful pointers.

If you're doing the timing belt, you've already got the front mount off. Take a jack and lower the engine a bit so that you can get access to it through the passenger side wheel well. You can get it, you've just got to move the engine around a little bit. -------------------- 1994 Toyota Celica GT-S 5S-FE 190k Miles. Project car 1992 Toyota Celica GT 5S-FE 170k Miles.
