Have you tried some penetrating oil around it and let it soak, a while. How about using a rubber hammer and banging on the pump? Don't damage the housing. In the past, I had a tire and rim that wouldn't come off vehicle after removing the lug nuts. I tried a pry bar on the rim, no luck. Used a rubber hammer and beat the devil out of tire all the way around the rim, my arm was giving out, the rim finally came loose. Another thought, you might use a drill, Either drill holes around the pump or you can get a grinding rock bit for the drill and grind on the pump, just don't damage the housing. even if you take pump out in pieces, it doesn't matter, right? good luck
