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!

    Go to the parts store and buy a Haynes Manual... it will show you step by step how to take it apart....

    My guess would be most of your time will be spent lying on the ground....
    then buy a new one and get your self some tools and a repair manual at autoparts store not much to it once you see what it looks like you start removing parts that are in way til you can take it off clean the old gasket off well and but some blue selicone put on new gasket and put on new pump tighten it put back on all the parts you remove fill radiator start check for leaks should be able to do it on the weekend about three to four hours or lless... any of these will help all about the same as the other but it will give you a better ideal of how to do it and your sure to learn more about your car so doing it would be best not only you learn but you save money too... not hard to replace most parts hard part is knowing what is wrong to replace it so you got the hard part done knowing what is wrong
    big,big job. get a chilton or haynes repair manual, you could order one at your local parts store if they don't have one in stock. make sure you have all the tools you need..

    How much is to change water pump, thermostat and radiator in 2001 Passat 1.8T? Thanks.?

    Get estimates from at least three repair shops. Prices vary from place to place.How much is to change water pump, thermostat and radiator in 2001 Passat 1.8T? Thanks.?
    Kind of unusual to need a radiator on a Passat. Water pumps are a real problem on VW. Most shops will want to change out the T-belt when replacing the pump. Typical price for T-belt, water pump, job runs in the $800 to $1000 range. That would include the oil seals and antifreeze. Thermostats do go bad, radiators can go bad, but if you are just having an overheat issue, they may not be necessary.
