Best Answer

You have to drain the coolant and remove the accessory belt. You will then need to remove the fan/fan clutch assembly. Next you'll have to disconnect the 3 rubber hoses from the pump, one is hard to get to, under the alternator bracket. Finally you can unbolt it and the bolt holding the metal return tube next to the P/S. You can then transfer the return tube to the new pump(with a new O-ring) clean of the gasket surface and install the new pump. Finish reinstallation in reverse order and top off/bleed the coolant system.
