Next, one by one, clamp them in a vise and hit with a shot of "Blaster" and break the reed loose. Use a JIS screw driver!!!

Another while I'm at it, grabbed a Qtip and sprayed the brake cleaner on it and swabbed the hooey out the "seats" really good... Clean! Clean!

Clip any zip ties on the long hose going to the rear on the pump .. typically it has one or two clipped  to the harness.... 

Also next step is to get the frickn connector loose from the pump to the harness. On the 5th gen, its on the left front side...

Now go button it up and go try it out.... No more Pop! Pop! Pop! Heh heh... :fing02:

 

I assume on a 6th gen or possible 8th, the job wouldnt be that much different....
