I have a couple of simple engine rebuild questions.
Water pump: The longer bolt, lower near the inlet, will not clear the pulley when loosened; the ½” hex head is slightly behind the pulley. The pump is out & I know I can remove the pulley to clear the bolt, but this doesn’t make sense to me. The engine manual makes no mention of a captive bolt. Arsenal rebuilt engine (1957), no bubba modifications. What am I not seeing?
Oil filler/dipstick tube: Once the clip is off, what holds it in the block-press fit? I don’t want to break it; what is the proper removal/install method? The tube is neatly indented behind the generator, I presume for generator clearance; is this correct?
