After replacing the drive belt, run a wash cycle to ensure the belt is correctly fitted.

Only tricky part is you will need extensions for socket drive because belt is in the way for two of the motor mount nuts. I used a 1/4" small socket wrench, with an extension. No expertise needed on this one.

## WHAT I WISH I'D KNOWN BEFORE I STARTED ## 1.

This is the most difficult step, to get the flex coupling on the pump in a secure fashion using the clamp. It's much easier to do if the pump is not yet connected to the rest of the washer. 6. attach the pump to the washer with the three mounting screws. 7. re-attach the hoses. 8. run the washer and check for leaks.
I made the mistake of taking the flex coupling off the motor then tried to put the flex coupling on the motor and the pump when the pump was already attached to the washer. Major grief :>(
