Power Steering Pump Belt

NOTE: On some engines it may be necessary to remove other drive belts to gain access
to a particular belt during replacement. Refer to appropriate sections for information
concerning individual drive belts and proceed accordingly.
1. Loosen the two mounting bolts and the tensioning bolt on power steering pump.
2. Pivot the power steering pump to loosen belt.
Before removing the seawater pump, close the seacock, if equipped. If boat is not
equipped with a seacock, remove and plug the seawater inlet hose to prevent a
siphoning action that may occur, allowing seawater to enter the boat.
3. Remove or loosen seawater pump nuts sufficiently to allow belt to pass between
crankshaft balancer and water pump housing.
NOTE: Refer to SECTION 6A - Seawater Pump Removal if necessary.
