think there are shims and stuff?

In a word, no. It is not really a problem a long as you do not attack it like a bull in a china shop. I believe the timing for the pump is determined by the shims so do not even remove them unless that area needs cleaning. They are between the pump and the block. As you ease the pump out of the block be mindful there is a small hairpin clip that keeps a piece of linkage attached to the pump. Here a pair of needle nose pliers are your friend. You should not have a problem as long as you go slow and make deliberate moves. The only stressful part is the hairpin and the fear of dropping it.

Is this thing like the injector pump on a modern diesel, meaning like if you got it out of time it can blow the motor up? If so i think it may be worth finding or paying someone to do it. If it cant i see no harm in trying it.

Someone a lot more knowledgeable will have to answer this but my thoughts would be all the pumps are built to the same specs but the machineing of the block at the mounting point would be the variable. Since the linkage is also at a certain spec the pump may need to be spaced out just a bit to work properly. Do not really know, may be completely off base here.

In this picture you can see the rack arm that the governor linkage connects to. Yanmar Tractor Parts: INJECTOR PUMP - NEW! If your 2210 is like I think it is you will need to remove a little 4 bolt cover on the side to have some access to the linkage. There is a timing sequence to go through with rolling the engine and fuel squirting out as the crank shaft timing marks are aligned. If mark has gone past pointer-remove shims, if mark has not reached pointer-add shims. This info is coming from a 220/226 manual and may not exactly fit your 2210. Maybe someone has a manual that is closer to yours. I can try scanning and attaching if no one has anything closer. Pictures in my reproduction manual are lousy but text is great.

Good information.....thanks!! I ordered the pump from Hoye; I've had very good results asking for advice with other parts I've ordered from them. I'll call and ask 'em how to do it.

It does look pretty simple, aside from the clip and the shims.......
