 recently replaced a Canadian made after market pump (that failed) with the

PO was the original AC pump.  I am rebuilding that.  The challenge is
getting the old valves out and the new ones installed. The originals are
peened in (not sure of the correct term), but you need to dremel (this is a
verb right) them off  to even up the edges prior to attempting the change.

If someone else has a better method I'm sure they will chime in.

The metal is quite soft. When I rebuilt mine, I used the sharp blade of a box
cutter to trim away the material and after replacing the valves, slightly
peened it over again in the same manner as original.
