    I would say pressure test the cooling system first and verify source of leak. Labor 1.5 hours plus price of pump and antifreeze. https://repairpal.com/estimator?car_type_id=4278

    To add to my partner Pat. I have run acroos these units with high electolosis in the coolant causing heater core failure. make sure you flush it out rel well and re measure.
