Question Want To Remove Rats Nest. How Do I Do It?

I WAS CHANGING MY WATTER PUMP AND I KNOW THIS SOUND SCRAZY BUT I SAW RAT CRAP BY ON A PART ON THE RATS NEST. I THOUGHT IT WAS A METAPHOR BUT I GUESS NOW I KNOW ITS THE TRUTH. IN ANY MATTER I WOULD LIKE TO REMOVE ALL THOSE THINGS FROM TOP OF THE MOTOR AND CLEAN IT UP. SO I CAN REMOVE THE AIR PUMP FROM THE MOTOR AND RATS NETS,DOES IT TAKE ALOT OF TIME. WHAT TOOLS I NEED, DO I NEED TO BUY ANYTHING.? LET ME KNOW PLEASE.

Did you read the Rat's Nest Tutorial?

It's in the FAQ, did you read the FAQ?

Why are you yelling at the top of your lungs (typing all in caps)?

If you've read the FAQ, found the tutorial, read the tutorial, and still have questions, please ask specific questions so that we can help you out.

The tutorial is great, but there is another way it's done: If it ain't an engine or a carb or an alternator or a fan or a distributor or a dipstick, just rip that **** the hell out of there. When you got it all out and in a pile, just plug up all the holes. Then come back here for advice on why it won't start or run or idle, etc.
