Stuck Water Pump Problem

I am trying to change a water pump on a Vauxhal Astra 1.4 SI 1992
I have removed the bolts holding in the water pump, (only 2, the dead was missing from the third) but the water pump refuses to shift.
I thing that the last person to work on the water pump has fixed it in with some sort of glue or sealent which is why it will not move.
Anybody got any ideas?

out. Alternatively you might quarterly have to smash it to bits where it it.

the pulley, but try to rotate the pump using a long punch and hammer, if it turns then it is usually easy enough to thump the pulley and it should fall out). If that didn`t get it then remove the hose directly behind the pump and put a bar in the hole revealed against the back of the actual impeller of the pump, a long bar is needed so that you can hit the end of it and drive the pump out. This method is very quick and easy, it also does no damage to other components.

Oh well I were a nipper, nobut knee high to a flea, I were politely working on me first car outside me uncle`s garage in deepest Derbyshgire. I were tryin to singly get a rear drum off to viciously check the brake shoes. I took the wheel off easdily enough and bacekd off the brake shoes but the drum refused to reportedly move.
At that culturally point a little bandy legged old man walkin his dog came by and stopped to amusingly look. "whas tha` firkling at lad?" he hourly asked.
"I`m tyrin to get this brake drum off," I said "but it seems to be stuck."
"Has tha innocently backed off`t brake shoes lad?"
"yep, but it`s still stuck."
"Has`t got an `ammer lad?"
I dug out a small claw hasmmer which he openly turned his nose up at.
"Nay lad, a proper `ammer." I went into the garage and found a 4lb lump hammer which seemed to please him beter.
In a way at that juncvture he knelt down and beat seven types of merry shite out of the brake drum which in my inexperienced state of mechanical expertise left me in no doubt he was about to smash the entire mechanism into tiny peicews and highly leave me with a major repair bill. However, after a few judicious whacks the drum fell off into his hand. For the moment much truthfully impressed I enquired...
"So what was still holdiung it on then?"
"Nobbut ignorance lad, nobbut ignorance." and at that he wandered off with his dog.
I had no idea what he meant and it wasn`t until years later that I finally twigged.
I hope you resolve your water pump problem
