water pump replacement

[kk2002s]

Many on this forum know how hard this job is.
It's a messy job as you have to deal with the coolant. It's not as frustrating as replacing the coolant expansion tank as most bolts on the WP are accessible. A couple are challenging. Then you have to replace lost coolant and make sure system is purged of air. I found this a good time to flush and replace my coolant.
