Question Oil Meter Pump - How do you remove it?

The manual shows only two bolts (on top) holding the pump on, but it won't budge. Is there a third bolt holding this thing on, and if so, how do I get to it? I was going to replace the o-ring if I ever get it off the car.

Any Help is Appreciated,

Dustin

Somebody help! I know someone has taken this off before. Is there anyway to get it off without using dynamite. Is it necessary to remove the front engine cover to get the little bas#*%d off?

I finally got the oil meter pump off. There is a third bolt, and anyone trying to remove it will need at least three extensions for the smaller ratchet, a flashlight, and your wifes mirror from her makeup (my wife is gonna kick my A%s when she see's what I did to hers).

After pulling the little sucker off, I discovered my oil leak. There is a solenoid of some kind that is screwed into the underside of the pump. In my case the solenoid was cracked leaving a 1/4 gap between its o-ring and the pump.

Has anyone had this experience before? Where do I get a new solenoid like this? If I have to go back to the dealer and be molested again (last time it was the double throttle solenoid) I'm going to **** and moan.
