I've been fighting with my PS pump for a few days now. I can't get the pump out of the resevoir. I believe I have removed all the connections. The three bolts in the front & the stud & large nut in the back. I've beat & pried & pulled & it wont budge.

The "large nut" on the back, contains what I think is the pressure valve. If you are rebuilding the pump, and the kit contains a new fitting (as mine did) try reinserting the large nut and the stud just a few turns, thread a nut onto the stud, and try tapping the stud / nut, and the large fitting nut with a hammer or wooden mallet. It's a very tight fit, removing and replacing the pump. When replacing the pump, I alternated tightening the bolts and tapping it with a wooden mallet to get it seated. It can be done, just takes patience and care. Good luck!

Thanks for the advice. I'll try that right now.
