Hi gents,
I'm trying to change the timing belt on my 1998 GSX and am stuck at the water pump pulley. Hoping someone might be able to offer a tip on how to remove the 1 piece unorthodox racing aluminum water pump pulley pictured. I've got the driver side motor mount removed, and have the engine jacked up by the oil pan as far as it will go but still not enough space to get it out. Would removing either the bottom-front or passenger side engine mount allow for any more vertical lift on the engine? If so, is this safe to do with the engine lifted just by the oil pan alone?
Thank you in advance!
