hi, I just changed the water pump last weekend. It wasn't too hard to get the pump all unbolted, but it was like a puzzle trying to pull it out of the van because of the one cross-over coolant pipe. If you are going to change your thermostat too, be careful separating the housing from the water pump, the bolts on mine broke and it had to be re-drilled with a larger size. bye, Kim 85 GL >From: Sonia Johnson <dscrkjohns@JUNO.COM> >Reply-To: dscrkjohns@JUNO.COM >To: vanagon@GERRY.VANAGON.COM >Subject: Water pump >Date: Mon, 8 Oct 2001 09:10:17 -0700 > >My water pump just died, and I'm wondering if this is a straightforward >repair, or is there anything complex about it?
