This is going to be hard to explain,, but here goes.
Helping my neighbor with his Super M rebuild and have the water pump apart.
The piece where the large nut goes onto the bigger shaft had no clearance to put a socket on it, so we pried up the water pump bearing retainer and the seal came off the bottom allowing the piece to come up over the nut.
Now going back together, there is no way to tighten the nut while the seal is in the water pump bearing retainer. This pump also has 2 spacers that go onto the retainer that I don't see in the parts book.
If we flip over the retainer, there is enough room to get a socket on it, but it does not seem to go down far enough.
Are we missing something here? Is there a special tool to use to tighten the nut? I am talking about the large nut, not the packing nut.
I could use some good photos to look at.
If this is not enough info, I will try and get some pics posted.
I found a pic, thanks Joe
Thanks!
