Hi,
My 1993's P/S pump just went out. I'm wondering what all is involved in replacing it. My experience working on cars is 1970s Firebird/Camaro, so some of the S/C's accessory routing is a bit foreign to me. I've read over the details in the Haynes manual, but it mentions a kit to replace the seals on the intercooler air tubes whenever they are removed (which is required when replacing the pump it seems)
Can anyone who's done this job before offer any advice? Also, a ballpark figure on parts (and if I decide to take it in, reasonable hourly labor charges?) The repair looked reasonably strightforward, but I need my car back sooner than later, so I'm wondering if this is a job I can do in a reasonably short (6-8 hours) time in the driveway.
