i am replacing the water pump on a 1997 pontiac bonneville and the power steering pump pulley is in the way. So i need to remove the pump to access the bolt that is behind the pulley.

i found this tip for you
simply loosen the lower bolt-13mm deep socket, "2 bolts hold P/S/ pump assembly, 1 @ 12 o'clock... 1 @ 6 o'clock." Now with the lower loosened about 3/4 out, next remove upper bolt, this allows the pump to rock back out of the way
