Default power steering reservoir HELP!

Can I remove it with the pump on the motor? I'm trying to pop those two tabs off with a hammer and screwdriver and it just isn't happening. Anyone have any tips? I really don't want to have to take off the whole assembly but if I have to I will.

thanks

I might jsut be wrong... but I think that whole assemb needs to come off. I have actually removed that maybe 4 or 5 times before, but I have a bad memory! lol. If I am not mistaken those tabs come off with some ease after the assemb is removed, but they slide towards the block making it impossible to remove just the reservoir with the pump still in place. Anyhow, thats my 2 cents. Good luck on the whole thing!!

you have to pull the ps pulley off then you can get access to the bolts behind the pulley that are holding the resorvoir and motor to the head
