Use a flat blade such as a sharpened paint scraper to separate the spacer from the pump and it will all come apart easily.
Any oldtimer tricks on this one? ............
good job ol man...bahahaha..

Hi, Patient is my Clubby Van. 998 with Mechanical Fuel Pump - Working with the engine in the car
I'm unable to slide the fuel pump off of the block mounted studs and it appears that the "shoe" that activates the pump (goes thru the block "window") is too high up in the window to allow me to withdraw the pump with those studs still in the block. Also, the spacer seems stuck on the pump. ( A comment in the service manual mentions the following - separate the insulator with a screwdriver - but it is really stuck on the pump ).
Does anyone have specific experience about this problem? For instance:
Do you have to pull the studs to allow the old pump to pull out of the block's "window"?
Any oldtimer tricks on this one?
I'm trying to not have to pull the studs, or ruin the spacer in order to replace this pump!
Chime in, please, with real info, and thanks in advance!
Best,
MSH
