Water pump

how long should it take to change a water pump on 2006 gmc pickup, 4.8 liter gas

I can’t tell you but if you go to the library and look up “Motor’s Flat Rate Manual”, you will get and idea as to what garages charge.

When I had my GM vehicles, I copied all the revant pages and kept them for reference when my cars went in for repairs.

A good mechanic can beat the times, but an amateur may take 2-3 times as long.

A few hours at least.

Radiator has to be removed. All the drive belts. The clutch-fan. All the hoses.
