My water pump has been leaking for about 2 weeks and tomorrow i finally have enough money for a water pump. I was wondering if anyone on here has done it recently, and how long did it take you? Im guessing it couldn't be too difficult.

2.5 hrs all hand tools. Careful with w.p. bolts and don't be shy with the silly cone.

I spent about an hour just scraping off the old gasket material just to be sure of a good seal.
You will have to remove the crank pulley.
Keep track of the water pump bolts because the sizes vary.

Don't forget to keep checking you coolant level after the refill when done.
It took me about 3 mornings to work out the air pockets in the engine.
Each morning the level would drop 3-4 inches.
Run the heater also to help get the air pockets out of there too.

Total time for me was about 3-4 hours, but I had to remove an entire supercharger bracket.
2-2.5 hours sounds right for you.
