I just had the water pump changed on my 99 astro and it cost about $330.
= Answer ==
3 Hours labor plus parts cost: Parts and Labor vary based upon your location: From 20 dollars per hour to over 100 dollars per hour (Dealership or a Local sideline Mechanic) Parts are much the same.
At a minimum it would more than likely cost $100.00 and go up from there.
adding to answer..
just replace one on 97 astro.. pump was $45.00 new at parts house.. took me close to 4 hrs more or less with taking old pump with fan assem to get removed getting new hose, idler and tensioner pullys total cost was 143.00 for parts.
$330 is a real good number for getting just water pump removed.. more if you do other stuff while they have the fan shroud off, belt off, .. replacing hoses, belts, tensoiner and idler pulleys etc.
Remove the water supply hose from your 1987 Chevy Astro thermostat housing. Remove the thermostat housing retaining bolts. Remove the old thermostat and drive in the new thermostat.
Drain the water from your 1998 Chevy Astro cooling system. Remove the water supply hoses from the heater core. Remove the heater core retaining bolts. Reverse the process to install the new heater core.
yes
Drain the water from your 1996 Chevy Astro Van cooling system. Remove the water pump belt. Remove the water return hose. Remove the water pump retaining bolts. Reverse the process to install your new water pump.
brilliant, the thermostat is backwards
How do you change the water pump on a 1997 chevy malibu?
You really should use a 50/50 mixture of coolant and water for the best protection.
the water is very important to the wworld so in order to make it radiator it needs some love and care, thats wht makes the world go round and the chevy astro van is in the world so it alll makes sence(:
if you have a leaking water pump gasket i thing bay a new one is better
Look under the hood for the radiator fan. The fan is mounted to the pulley at the front of the water pump.
its a very good idea
If you go 2 the dealer about $85-$100 an hour + parts. If you go to a shop about $50-$70. Dependes on where you live.
