These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

8 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Does anyone know the book labor hours for the coolant tank replacement?

POST 2 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Bump... Is 3.5 hrs a little much?

POST 3Original post

Depends on the year. It took me about an hour of contortions to remove it the first time, about a half hour to replace it. After my plastic weld job, it started leaking again several days later. This was on my '99 Cab.

POST 4Original post

My local indy charged me $570 to install a new WP, reservoir, T-stat, belt, flush/fill with new coolant, bleed system (I bought the parts)

POST 5Original post

I changed the tank on my 99 coupe last month. Took off airbox, disconnected rubber pipes and disconnected 2 fuel lines, disconnect temp sensor. Removed tank Took less than 30 mins. Installing new tank and reconnecting took 15 mins or so. I have never done it before so an hour should be easily achievable

POST 6Original post

I have a '99 and I did mine in about 90 minutes. Getting the tank out was the hardest part. If you remember the last thing you did before it came out, putting in the new one is easier.

POST 7Original post

I have an '02 and was told that they have to drop the engine to change it.

POST 8 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks for the input but I am looking for someone with the actual book labor hrs. This was on an '01 C2. The shop initially told me 1.25 hrs then charged me 3.5 because I needed the car the next day.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
