There are only two bolts that hold the pump to the engine. The one is easy to see, the second one however is behind the pulley and doesn't even come all the way out unless you remove the pulley from the pump.

Mr_Shiftright

Does that require a puller?

thecardoc3

No, the pulley unbolts. But you need a spanner that can hold it to remove it.
