JD,
Here's one I really know about. Remove the tensioner, disconnect the HT lead from the coil, remove fan, fan shroud, remove serpentine belt, remove long bolts from PS pump and push it to the right out of the way. Remove upper radiator hose. Remove heater return line from the left side of the pump (Don't forget to replace that O-Ring). Just to be safe, remove the thermostat and check it. Depending on the miles, it might be a good idea to replace (Inexpensive insurance) it as well as the gasket (O-ring). Remove 4 capscrews holding pump to block. Clean mating suface on block. Reinstallation is pretty much the reverse of removal. Have a great time
