This is about as close as you will come to a 10 minute job. It is right up there and almost nothing holding it on. Be sure to break the pulley bolts loose before removing the belt or you might have a little trouble holding the pulley still while trying to break them loose.How difficult is it to change the water pump on a 1985 chevy s10 blazer 2.8 liter?
Why not, that's the way I learned.

Use a Chilton's.
not difficult at all! you can handle it! Take the 8 bolts off old water pump and pull the 2 radiator hoses off and replace with new one.
Also make sure you put a new gasket on it. and it is completly sealed up when you put the new on. Becuse if not many problems will happen.
the degree of difficulty depend,s on the degree of experience you have ..but most of what your referring to are simple fix,s...if you are inexperienced then you can in-list the help of a good auto repair manual such as chilton,s , motor,s or Haynes....it,s good that you are at least willing to try...these manual,s will give you step by step direction,s so that failure will not be a problem...good luck!
