its realy not all that difficult. there is a bolt kinda on the underside od the power steering that you loosen and the whole pump moves about an inch to loosen everything up thenjust slip it off carefully.
to clean it i would use a good degreaser or somthing like it. i like purple power very versitle.
then to put it back on just weave it back there should be a sticker under the hood to show you
it might elp to have someone there with you that doesnt mind getting dirty to hold the belt in place youre weaving it and re tightening the bolt under the power steering. if you go to an auto zone they should help you do it at least at mine they did.
i think thats about all you need to know
