Everything goes back together the same way it came off. You can't see it but I took the time to paint the fan blades black. Not a big deal.

Once you put the gasket on and put the sealant on the other side, wipe off and excess. You DID clean the engine block already, right?

Before putting the gasket sealer on, test fit the gasket first to make sure you have the correct side exposed.

The old pump verses the new pump.. Yeah, it was time for a new one. If you look at the old pump in about the 2:00 position, that is where it was leaking from.

This sediment did concern me a bit. It came off easy enough but, hopefully all of that rust is from the old radiator. In any case, I will flush it a few more times just to be safe.

OK.. I got lazy and pulled out the air ratchet. 13MM bolts take off the rest of those holding on the water pump. If you are on a smooth concrete garage floor, you might want to have some quik dry or kitty litter around. Antifreeze is slick.

After removing the two small lines at the top of the pump, it was time to remove the AC/power steering bracket. This takes 13 and 14MM sockets.

A 5/8 socket, a solid socket wrench and a 4 foot leverage makes quick work of the belt.

With the radiator and shroud out of the way, this is what we are looking at. There is a LOT more room to work now. Notice the lower is still attached to the water pump. It is a pain to take off so I left it on until the pump came out.

I also took off the rubber air inlets so I could have more room to work. 8MM works here also
