Mike104 Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 Make sure all of the bolts are removed. Use a long screwdriver or pry bar to move it off the block. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lmdew Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 Look at your new pump and double check all the bolts. It's sealed on with RTV or the Subaru sealant and you have to pop it off. Look at the bottom of the pump. The 2 round extensions on the casting extended below the block. You can take a large pry bar or wood board and put it between those and the oil pan and pop the pump forward. Again check all the bolts first! Make sure you check and lock tight the oil pump rear cover screws if you are reusing the pump. Change the seal, Subaru recommended and get the oring seal. The one between the block and pump. I use Gray RTV to seal the pump on. Subaru does have a specific sealant to use. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
