: Oil Leak Update:Thanks to those of you who answered my problem concerning a bad oil leak at the rear of my 28 Tudor engine.I dropped the pan and sure enough the oil return pipe from the rear main was missing.I installed the new pipe, re-gasketed everything and voila! Not a single drip.
: New Problem:With no oil leaks, it bothered me that the water pump was drooling all the time.No problem, buy a new water pump.Tonight I started to change the pump and after removing the nuts from the pump, it appears that the pump will not come off unless the radiator is removed??Is this the case or is there a simpler way of doing this??It would probably come off if I could remove the fan & pulley, but I don't see how you could get a puller on to remove it from the shaft/key?
: Any help would be greatly appreciated (once again).As a new Model A enthusiast, I certainly appreciate the help I have received so far!!
