Hello,

The water pump can be replaced in couple of hours, depending on your comfort level.
There are few items to be removed before you can get the water pump out.

Remember to only work on the cooling system when he engine is cold.

Here is a helpful article that covers the basics of water pump change:

I have attached diagrams for your reference.

Please let me know of any questions.
Thank you.
