I noticed this morning a puddle of water under the X...so I got to lookin at it this afternoon and noticed that the water pump is leakin underneath. Further examination showed me that there's antifreeze comin out of the little pin-like hole underneath the pulley....
So...I called and got a price on a water pump (Oreilly's, 49.99 w/lifetime warranty)
However, anything imparticular I should know about it? I read that sometimes the water pump bolts break off, but I'm not to worried about that. I also read on here (loads of info, thanks!) that the Auto-zone fan pulley kit that you can rent is absolute junk and I shouldn't go there...so I'll be checkin around on that.
Anything else I should be pre-warned about? I've done water pumps on old chevy's before, but never a 90's generation ford...and just like the boyscouts, I wanna be prepared..LOL
