no special tools other than a wrench to fit on the fan nut.
I used a large adjustable and smacked it a few times with a rubber mallet to pop it loose.

 

Ravenhurst posted really helpful details and pictures on how to change a waterpump.
I'm not a mechanic but was able to do my in about 3 hours with his instructions.
