What is the labor time to R&R a waterpump on a 1987 Toyota Camry Sedan.
It would be the water pump with the housing.
Also the timing belt will be replace too. I believe the the belt needs to be removed for this job so there shouldn't be additional labor.
If anyone has access to ALl Data or the Factory labor times that woulld be a great help.
Also I heard that All Data times are on the high side?
MOD says 3.6
+.2 for cruise control +.1 for oil cooler interference +.2 per pulley if your doing oil seals hope this helps, Ben
I don't know, but if you were in Wheeling WV I could do it at home for you. As I need the work. Shops around here are getting $60.00 to $80.00 an hour. Tony
Using the average of the books I can access looks like 3.5 hours.
I have done a bunch of these. I always urge the customer to do be thorough, and replace the w/p, t/belt, oil seals, drive belts and change the oil and filter, coolant and t/stat and hoses as necessary. Cuts way down on comebacks and I end up with happier customers. I usually charge 4.5 hours. hth, Ben
AS most all that has to come off anyway, it is a good idea. I had about the same thing done when I had the timing belt changed on my 1919 Camry. Not much more labor and not that much in parts if the mechanic does not try to charge for additional labor to replace things he has to take off anyway.
I had the timing belt and water pump replaced on a 2000 4runner with 3.4L engine. They also replaced all the pulleys under the timing cover (at least
2). No tensioner was replaced (huh??). No seals either. I know you want to know the hours, but the cost was exactly $1000.Vito
I was going to insist on a Toyota pump, seals, and coolant when we have this job done on our '95 Camry wagon. The shop we'll be using buys from NAPA, though, and if that NAPA pump is really good then I'll just have them use that. Can anyone else recommend it? I was also going to let them use a NAPA timing belt. Can NAPA get good oil seals, or should I provide those with the coolant?
I'm not up to date. But I did just put a new compressor on my '97 Lumina, and asked for a Delco. I got OEM, but it wasn't Delco. Started with remans, and after 2 bad ones Murray's gave me a new one at the same cost to shut me up. So what you say is no surprise. Always heard good things about those Toyotas waterpumps.

Delco is OEM manufacturer and also a redistributor, so they also rebox what they don't make. You have to tell local stores "do not substitute". NAPA is just simpler in case of warranty issues.
