Noticed after removing the water pump on the M37 engine that
the water distribution tube was rusty and might as well
replace it. Ha!
Here's what I tried:
Vice grips on edge...pull hard!! Off comes a piece of metal
clamped in the jaws of the vice grip.

Make a long rod with a hook on the end. Put a big heavy
socket on the rod. Put hook in hole in the dist tube. Use
socket as slide hammer. Doesn't budge, but the cheezy end I
rigged as a backstop for the socket bends all up 'till I
can't use it anymore.

Gad! Any ideas, anyone?
