Its got 156,000 on it. that seems to be the time they start leaking. already read the great DIY posted on this subject.

Grateful for any input

Watch out for the springs falling into the engine bay as you lift the lines off the pump. Other than that, take your time. Oh and make sure when you reattach the lines, that you wiggle things around so the valve is correctly seated. You don't want to torque down onto something that's stuck at the wrong angle.
