Install a new water pump pulley with three new bolts. Insert the pulley holder in the 12'o clock position to keep the pulley from moving while you
torque the bolts to 14 N.m (10 lb-ft).
NOTE:

The exact torque is critical for a successful repair. To guarantee the correct torque, you must use an accurately calibrated torque wrench.
It's OK to use a crowfoot socket wrench with the torque wrench.
^
Do not install the drive belt before you torque the pulley bolts. If you do, you won't get accurate torque readings.

Remove the pulley holder after you torque the pulley bolts.
