The grill was definitely undisturbed, but I don't recall whether we wound up pulling or working around the radiator. When I have tried to work on water pumps with the radiator in place, I have always wound up cutting my knuckles on the fins, and also having to straighten out fins, too.... Just saying.</div><div><br /></div><div>Tom just left California Healey Week, and may or may not be able to comment.</div><div><br /></div><div>BTW, CHW is a great get together!! We had 50 Healeys or more, and probably over 100 participants in Yosemite National Park.</div>

Other than removing fan and radiator, does the grill have to be removed to access the pump for removal. I pray all can be done with the engine in the car. Thanks for your thoughts and suggestions.......rich antal</div></div></blockquote></div>
