Pay attention to the bolt locations. There are a lot of different bolts on these things, so I used a cardboard template to keep track of each one’s position.

On the coolant refill, it might be worth poking around the forum to find your favorite method of avoiding air pockets.

Other than that, I found it pretty straightforward. Enjoy!

I would like to have your old pump if you don’t need it.
