Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) power steering pump alignment?

[paulsmith]

replacing the power steering pump on my 96, it slips in to about 1/4" gap, I assume that is the drive key not aligned? I have been trying for a hour to pull the pump back, turn it a few degrees, and put it back... . No luck

Do i just "draw the pump up" with the bolts?

EDIT_ Sorry, I see I asked this under the 24V forum, this is a 12 valve, I re-posted to that section.

No dont pull it in with the bolts it has to line up with the slot in the vacuum pump.
