difficult without special tools

learn your limitations?
disconnect, get a new one, read the manual and put it back together? fill with water, and turn on. should work. not much help, i know...
simple: goto your nearest auto repair shop. Don't try to do anything yourself. especially those tauras
Remove the passenger side tire and get at it from the bottom. You need a pulley remover, you can rent it at Autozone. Remove the belt, etc, etc, etc. Get a Hanes manual at your local parts store for an idea of what you need to do before you start doing anything. Most people go to a mechanic because it is a LOT of very hard work.
Loosen the bolt, swap it with a new pump and tighten the bolt.
