    you can just fill it back up. it should be ok. as far as removing the pump, do you have a lift?

    well...that's not good. you have to remove both subframe braces to make the job easier.

    I did it without a lift-- just a jack and stands. It's not easy without a lift, but it is possible. the hardest part is getting the belt tensioned once it's attached, or at least it was with my engine. I can possibly post some instructions when I get home.

    i have the car on jackstands that are set on a foot. now... is there a way to remove it for a drop without taking out those 3 pita bolts? I cant get at the last bolt. Any suggestions?
