Default oil pump question

When changing the relief spring are you taking the 4 bolts out that hold the pump together and pushing the roll pin out the top ? Looks like a pressed in plug in bottom.Also r u locktiting in the bolt that holds the pump on or just torquing to spec? THANKS JOHN B

Yes, you have to revove the bottom plate and push out the roll pin. Loctite is your call. I don't recall using any.

i didnt use locktite either. probably not a bad idea though. its pretty easy to swap the spring out.
