I've removed everything that videos have shone to remove, and old pump will not come out.

Hi,
I attached the directions specific to this vehicle for replacing the water pump. If you look at the pictures, you will see one where I highlighted information and I feel it is what you need for removal.
If I recall, the water pump itself is threaded, and to remove it, you need to install two bolts into the pump and tighten the screws equally a little at a time. The bolt will then touch the engine and the screws will work like a puller.
Take a look and let me know if this helps.
Take care,
Joe
