Loosen the old pump but do not remove it. If it wiggles around somewhat

Remember to rotate the engine so the eccentric is putting the least amount

snicks into place. If you do it wrong it takes a lot of brute strength and
profanity.

didn’t realize this simple trick, and as a result was forced to rely on
brute strength he doesn't have, and therefore had to double down on the
