How big a task is changing out the water pump on my 1990 300E? Anything
special I need to know?

Thanks,

Don

Not that bad really .... I did it last summer.

-losen pulley so that you can take off the belt
-take of 2 easy bolts holding on pump
- the difficulty (only) is taking off the rear bolt ... it is difficult to
reach and you will need universal joints and much care. I've posted a
detailed description of how it's done on 'Mercedes Shop.com' . Use the
search feature there.

cheers and good luck
