Are you sure it's the pump? As someone who has replaced back wheel bearings
when it was the fronts that were duff, I know the value of checking all
possibles in order! Start with all the hoses, then the rad. and heater.
Check for leaks at the heater valve too. IMHO the pump is likely to get very
noisy (bearings going) before it actually leaks!

I noticed some fluid underneath my car. Thought it was oil and
turned out to be coolant. I checked the water pump and it's a bit
wiggly. Is that much of a job and is there anything else I should check
when I pull the radiator? Is there a certain way of spinning the pump
while dry to set the seals in the pump?
