Any of them better than others ?
Also, has anyone replaced their own water-pump ?
Any caveats/gotchas ?
Do I have to remove the crankshaft pulley ?

I replaced the WP on my car about 2 yrs ago and it's a Laso if I remember correctly.
I did it at my tech's shop so if I got 'stuck' he could bail me out! And he did! Don't remember removing the CP but the harmonic balancer was. . . .
The hardest part is the little 2 - 3" hose; it's a bugger to get back on. The 'trick' is to lube (MB sliding grease) on the tstat side so that it will slide on. Without that, it's a bugger to get on.
