'91 300E aux water/heater pump DIY?

[anthonyb]

1991 300E, 154k miles. The small electric pump on the coolant line from the engine to the coolant reservoir tank (auxiliary water/heater pump) is leaking coolant. It looks like a pretty straightforward R&R; is there anything I need to keep in mind before I try this? Should I get new hoses for both sides of the pump?

thanks in advance,
anthony

Just be sure to replace the clamps. You will be fine. We carry all of the needed parts in the partsshop and we ship from CA!!! You will get them fast.

Thanks. I put in an order once before, and got it days before i thought I would (like, the next day on a ground shipment, or something close to that). I was pleasantly surprised.

One last question - are there any tips to getting all of the air out of the cooling system, or is this not something I should be too concerned about?

thanks!
