How do you remove power steering pump from a 91 olds ceria 4-cylinder?

The power steering pump is held on by several bolts and hoses and the power steering belt. Loosen one of the bolts on the pump to adjust it down so you can remove the tension from the belt. Once that is done, start removing the hoses carefully. They will be leaking fluid so it's good to place a rag underneath. Once the hoses are disconnected, remove the bolts holding the pump in place and it will be free.
