what sort of advice are you looking for,
you will also need new gasket and "O" ring
simply enough job
drain coolant,
remove power steering pump drive belt
remove inlet manifold
remove air intake hose
four bolts for coolant support bracket
take bolts out of power steering pump connected to coolant pump and place out of the way
take coolant hose of pump
take bolts out of coolant connecting it to block (wiring is connected to one of the bolts
take pump out and remove other hoses
throw away gasket
take off oil tempreture thermostat and throw away "O" ring
use correct coolant when refilling
when refilling fill to max on expansion tank replace cap start engine until normal temp is reached idle engine for a few minuetes ...then let engine cool for 30/40 mins then refill expansion tank to correct mark,check again atfer a decent drive and letting cool down
do use correct antifreeze/coolant (red)
maybe a good idea to do a flush thru while your at it
