From what I have heard its like an 8 hour job... then again, I have also heard these things never go bad.



thanks guys, Opossum
figure 5.5 hours..... all of that stuff has to come off.... ps pump only needs a couple of nuts loosened.. there should be a step by step on here somewhere... i have done 3..... not difficult just very time consuming. Be deliberate and patient. I have had water pumps go bad anywhere from 125k to 180k.
