Water Pump Replacement.
« on: 04 January 2011, 13:05:55 »

Might have a go or get a mate to replace mine later this week.

Cant find a guide for it.

What tools do I need and how long it it likely to take.

Might as well change auxillary belt in the process (what about any idlers?)

Any brand of water pump to stay away from?

TIA.   :y
