Pics of my old water pump out of the car showing where it leaks

This was a real hassel to do, at least 3 hours of labor for me. The bottom alternator bolt is really hard to get off. My back is quite sore, too.
Be sure to have 1/4 inch drive socket set handy. I also recommend a 1/4 inch drive torque wrench as some things are torqued to inch lbs.
I did'nt have to remove any tires or splash guards or touch any of the engine mounts either.
This is a pretty big job that requires concentration and having the RIGHT tools too. 12mm,10mm,14mm short and deep sockets are needed, 3/8" and 1/4" drives. A good 3/8"breaker bar for that stubborn bottom alt. bolt helps too.10mm,12mm and 14mm box end wrenches are a plus, especially the ratcheting style.
I don't recommend this job as one to "learn" how to work on cars for the first time or for a DIY rookie.
Now... on to the pics!
