    Leaking 3.5 waterpump

    Ran a bit hotter yesterday. Found water coming out around the pump !
    I have never needed to change a waterpump on one of these V8's,
    is it a staight forward operation or awkward and difficult ?
    Ta.

    I always find it pretty easy the 2 hoses on the back of the water pump will need replacing if they havent been done recently.
    Heaps of rubber grease and a couple of big screw drivers on mine as its a PITA to get them back on.
    Check for corrosion on the face of the timing cover where the impeller runs if this is badly corroded you may need to consider repairing or replacing.
    On a stage 1 its easier to take the radiator out not sure about a Disco
