Time to replace the water pump.
It made it 21 years. Not bad. I noticed a little coolant leak starting about the time I went to Coreys for the ZR-1 BBQ but it was no big deal then. But in the last week it got bad. It was pooring out leaving a huge puddle under the car. No more driving it after that. Time to find out where the leaks coming from. Right where I suspected.

This craftsman LED telescoping mirror kicks azz for $9.00. I've never price any water pumps for a 90 Z so I don't know what im looking at price wise. Last edited by rhipsher; 03-12-2011 at 09:16 PM. |

Re: Time to replace the water pump.
Ebay auction http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...K%3AMEWAX%3AIT for the waterpumpman
I got an email from him but can't find it now. If I remember right, he charges $100 to rebuild yours, that includes a gasket and shipping back to you. You ship it to him at your cost. Contact him through Ebay. Corvette Central has new ones for $199 plus shipping.

Re: Time to replace the water pump.
Good time to replace your hoses, thermostat etc while you are there. Just a thought
