This sucks!

I have been running what I woudl consider good temps as compared to what I have heard until today...

heard a noise in the engine as I pulled inot work, and openbed the hood and looke down to get sprayed in the face with coolant, it was a light mist, so it wasn't burnt or anything..

But the water pump pully is canted all to hell and it is very vsibly canted.

Not sure if it had anything to do with it, but I just took my A/C compressor off last night to inspect it to se if I wanted to replace it when I replace my evap core, and put everything back.


I didn't bear down on the water pump pulley or anything. ,maybe the release and re-application of pressure done it on in....

Where have ya'll gotten one from and been happy with it??

Napa, Orielies, ADV Auto, AutoZone, etc???

Is this a core charge part? cuz I'm pretty sure my core is done if it is...
 
How do I get the pully off of the water pump?

I ordered a new one from Oreily's... Should be here tomorrow.
 
just take out the 4 bolts that hold the pulley on and it comes right off. Regardless of where you buy the pump get a NEW one , not a rebuilt one. (just my opinion from what i've seen selling auto parts for almost 20 years)
