Replacing water pump

[romy]

2004 discovery. I lost my shop manual. Is there a write up as to how to replace water pump. I have taken the fan out already. Waiting for the water pump to arrive.

I have a D2 4.0 do not know the procedure to replace but should seem straight forward. Here is a link hope this helps. http://www.landroverresource.com/docs/D2_Workshop_Manual.pdf

It also makes a noise when the bearings are shot.

Good luck scraping the old gasket off.

No kidding. I'm in the middle of resealing just about everything on my 4.6 and putting on a new timing chain- those gaskets suck.

Finger nail polish remover can help in softening the old gaskets.
