Well, I decided to change the pump and do a few other parts changes at the same time while the coolant was out. There is probably other things done that I do not recall being sleep deprived.
IF you do not have a hose clamp pliers, you need to get some to aid in the installation and remover of the hose clamps. I picked mine up at Harbor Freight Tools. I do not think that I could have finished the installation of the many clamps without them!!!
