I Wish you all the luck in the world!!! I have just done that job while stranded in eastern north carolina it took me 7.5 hours it take a lot patience one suggestion I have is to have two 6mm allen wrenches one keep in original size and the other, cut the short section in half so that it will allow you to reach in tight spots when replacing the new pump loosly fit the hose with the flat gasket first GOOD LUCK OLD CHap!
