$200-300, because you pretty much change the timing belt at the same time.How diffifcult/expensive would it be to change the water pump on a 1990 toyota celica?
depends if its got 1.6l motor its a external pump which is easier than the 2.0l or 2.2l which is driven by timing belt . drain out coolant remove part replace part fill with new coolant dont forget thermostat and gasket
Pretty easy to do. First you need to take all the collant out of the system. This is done by disconnecting you lower hose running from your radiator. This will be messy and you will need something to hold the fluid. Cats love antifreeze and will drink it. It will kill them. So properly despense it.

Then while that is draining. Loosen you belt and remove that. Once that is removed you should have access to your pump. There will be bolts running around it that will need to be removed.

Then small flat head screwdriver should be able to work it free. Make sure to clean the housing where the pump was removed from all deposits and gaskets comes off to. Cleaner the better.

Before you put your new pump make sure to use silicone around it to hold the gasket on. Put, tighted bolts and follow throught putting everything else back on and your set. But dont forget your anitfreeze. Some might also replace thermostate to. Here is a link for a pump.

August R is spot on, just make sure if the timing belt also drives the water pump, that the belt is replaced properly, and :';in tune';...might as well replace the timing belt
No more than $300 dollars.
if you do it would cost about 70 dollars with new antifreeze but while you have it apart change timming belt also belt is about 30 dollars if a garage does it about 150-200 if dealer does it about 300 dollars if u have good tech skills about water pump and timming belt 3hrs if so so skills 5 hrs
