    Probably due to some to some CARB regulation.

    Actually this would not be so obvious because no part number can be seen on the inverter coolant pump.

    Believe me, your Prius is better off without it. The system was intended to help the Prius qualify for AT-PZEV certification. The AT stands for Advanced Technology - and apparently the Prius needed a fancy system to qualify for that.

    OK thanks, that's a little over my job description, but if you folks say it is easy, I might give it a go. Never used a jack stand. Went to Toyota-Parts today to get a bottle of the super duper coolant to top off and monitor leak rate.
