Nissan Repair: 1995 Nissan Altima - Water Pump, nissan altima, altima

Question
I recently had a water pump installed on my 1995 Nissan Altima.  I purchased the water pump for $35.00. What would be appropriate payment for the labor involved?   Thanks

Answer
Jennifer,

Flat rate for the work, without installing new belts is about $150 at $75 an hour.  If it is a person you know about $100 if they are working out of their house.  If all the belts were changed and the thermostat you are looking at more money, like $65 bucks more...
