Re: [FWDLK] Water Pump Question

James,
Use a pipe wrench on the outside of the tubes. Before you do, stick a snug
fitting bolt or a piece of round stock in the open end to keep the pipe
wrench from collapsing the tube. They will come right out , if they're not
badly rusted you can probably reuse them.
