just undid the crank pulley bolt.(started the engine with a socket wrench on the bolt). then i removed the alternator belt. it was tough, but we almost removed the steering pump belt - when moving the pump downwards it stops for some reason. i just loosened couple of bolts on its bracket and saw some fluid (which one? coolant? oil? brake fluid?) dropping from one of the bolts.
the tensioning pulley of the water pump was the toughest. not only the tightening bolt had a 1/2 socket (here we have mainly metric tools and i will have to wait weeks before get the wrench delivered), but the bolt was tightened from the wrong side - the wrench travel is at most 45 degrees restricted by the pulley itself...
i am afraid the pulley would be pressed on to the crankshaft...
