Car: '78 99 Turbo, 2.0L B engine

I've got the car back together to the point of adding coolant, which
came right back out the "leak port" on the water pump. So, I either screwed up
utting it together, or that seal I didn't ike the look of all that
much really does need replacing.

In, is easy. Out, not so much. I don't have the special tool from
Saab. Is there an easy way, or do I get to spend a half-day _making_ the
equivalent of said tool
in my shop today?

No, you have to either make or buy the tool :-(



Tyops are cool.

You know - this sounds horribly familiar. I know I was reading somewhere
that there are two kinds of pump shafts for that engine and one leaks. Or
wears out really fast. Could there be a metric and standard version for
different applications ? ..

When we did ours I think we ended up modding a really big puller and
pulled/pressed the shaft using a sacrificial bolt.
