It's rebuild time...you'll need to rebuild the water pump. You'll need to buy 2 seals, the impeller shaft, the shaft bearing and possibly a new right case cover gasket.

A couple of quick tips you can use are:

1)when draining the coolant from the drain bolt, leave the radiator cap on and once you've found a container to drain the fluid in remove the cap and the coolant will piss right out.

2) Make sure to install the seals the correct way or else they won't seal. You don't want to do the whole process all over again. The cross reference numbers on the seals or flat side face towards each other or the spring side face towards the fluids.

how much $$$ am i gona spend more or less?[/b]
If you do it yourself around $50-$60 for the parts....plus an oil change. It's really not that hard to do, but if you have no mechanical skills and a torque wrench and you don't feel confident enough to do it, take it to your local dealer or someone that can do it right.
