Water Pump

This is my first time here. Can somebody give me some info on my water pump? (1995 Rodeo Isuzu V6 2 door 2 wheel drive) I was told I need a special tool other than the regular wrenches, etc. What kind of tool would this be and for what use? Timing belt possibly? Also can somebody refer me to a web sight for the schematics and installing this stupid thing without buying a Chilton. Thanks for any info you can help me with.

you wil need a 12mm wrench, a 12 mm socket shallow and deep, 14mm socket, 8 mm allen wrench and a 24 mm socket (crankshaft bolt)
you may have a hard time getting the cooling fan off rust penatrant helps let it soak for about an hour
there are no special tools needed

A mechanic I WAS going to take it to has been putting me off for about a week. He told me he has been trying to track down some SPECIAL tool. I guess he is full of it. Thanks for your help!!

Sounds like he is trying to make the job sound more difficult than it is so he can charge you more.

Yep. Either that or he doesn't want to loose money tackling a job he is unfamiliar with.

I took it to someone else and he was done in no time for a lot less money, too. Thank yall for your help and you can bet I'll be back.
