Umm, someone said you can change the pulley, but you require a press.

Take it to your mechanic and ask him.

If the pulley is sloppy, it might be the shaft inside as well, so the pump could be fudged.

It used to be possible to change the bearing but standard practice now is to replace the pump (which would have to be removed to replace the beraing anyway). It is usually the bearing that is worn.
