I noticed my belt was cracked on my washer so I ordered one and began the task but how do you take apart the pump from the motor so I can take off the belt and install new one? I see a pin in pulley but I dont want to do that if you dont have to. Many thanks

You are welcome. Try WD-40 to remove the pump.
