Q: Water pump? - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

Paul Workman · 06-09-2008

Boy...When ya think ya might feel comfortable with your mechanical abilities, every now and then along comes one of these things that makes you so frustrated ya wanna eat sh*t and bark at the moon!...(Well, maybe not that bad

)

(Nuttin' like being sure you've found the (bearing going bad sound) problem and replaced the part...only to find it wasn't the problem...not once, but twice now!

) I'm gonna do as Pete suggested and just run it until there is no question which item is bad. (Only problem being that I don't dare drive it too far from home, in the mean time.)

On the outside chance I need to replace my water pump, does someone (Jeffvette?) know the GM part number so I can look at GM Direct?

IF I don't have it identified by the cruise at Bloomington Gold show (Saturday afternoon, June 28th), I'll bring my stethoscope along. That way, assuming someone else will bring their Z, maybe I can compare sounds of a known good LT5s accessories with mine...[sigh].

TIA,

P.
