My wife's 01 sub is loosing coolant. Noticed coolant puddle under truck last night, only drove it to church that morning. Looked under water pump last night and saw wetness. Question - how much coolant do I need to drain? I read about needing a special wrench during the repair - what exactly is it for? Anything special I need to know about? Remove coolant, shroud, loosen fan bolts and then remove belts, remove hoses to pump and then remove pump - basic order? How do I replace coolant - just thru the reserve tank? Thanks, Nelson
