[QUOTE="Bodaciouscj7, post: 1421731, member: 16358"] I do them fairly regularly at the shop. The gaskets do fail but not as often as the pump. Factory gasket is silcone o-ring in a metal frame. The last couple of pumps I have done have come with fiber gaskets. The job is really straight forward. Fan shroud is 2 peice and comes apart easily. Idler and tensioner are bolted to the pump and need to be removed. Thermostat is installed into pump housing and I usually replace them as I hate comebacks. Fan clutch is right hand thread. 6 bolts hold it to the block. Normal coolant bleed procedure (fill it, run it, and top it off). Hardest part of the job is getting the fan clutch off without the right tool. [/QUOTE]
