In trying to remove the water pump the engine support fixture gets in the way. So I try to remove it and cannot. How do I go about removing this?

Loosen lower power steering pump bolt and pull out about 3/4 of the way, now remove the upper power steering bolt. This will allow the pump to sway back out of the way. Use a 10mm swivel 1/4" drive to remove lower water pump bolt by reaching under motor mount with a 1/4" air rachet.
