Got home today and my waterpump was spewing out the weep hole all over my driveway.:angryfire:
Looks pretty straight forward:
remove fan, shroud, belt, idler pulley and hoses?
remove bolts and pump.
Anything I should be aware of?
Last w/p I did was on my 89 Mustang 5.0 and I had 2 bolts snap.

Looking forward to the coming week with record temps in the 110-115* :confused:o_O So..gotta get this pump done.
 






Did mine a while back, only problem I had was taking the fan clutch off, it was on there real tight.The loaner tool I got from autozone was streched at the openings had to hit the wrench openings on edge with a hammer against a vise to close them up ,so that it would fit tight, real PITA
 






EZ Peezy lemon squeezie..Completed my waterpump replacement with no issues.It was only about 105* out :eek:
The fan clutch tool made life simple.
