Product review (5 stars): Anyone can change this pump with basic tools.
The repair took about 30 minutes from start to finish.  Check out youtube for videos if you are not familiar with how to do this.  Anyone with basic tool handling ability can do this. All you need is a putty knife to lift the lid and remove the front, a pair of pliers to move the hose clamps and remove the hoses, and a 3/8 socket to remove the three bolts holding the pump to the washer housing. Be sure to tilt the washer back and support it while you remove the belt (turn the big pulley with one hand while pulling down on the belt with the other hand) before opening the washer to replace the pump.
