Hi there, coming to this millige myself so here it goes…

In order to reach and change the water pump you need to remove the timing belt

1. releasing and retensioning t-belt reduces its lifetime
2.the effort and time to remove the timing belt in order to reach and replace the water pump justifies replacing t-belt so you wont have to do it again soon

thanks skim,very helpfull
i think i will go cheap on the gun and spend on compressor
hose doesn’t have to be long
john, coordles electrical sounds good too for the DIYer
and saves a lot of space…
price will be key

what about a ” way off base …” category for the stuff the audience hmmm..s…?

way to go Eric !

Hi , the way i have heard it is like this
if your engine starts consuming oil 5-30w (thin oil)
say because of worn piston rings …change to 10-40 20-50w (thicker oil) in order to burn less oil
as it will not seep through the same cracks as easy .
having worse lubrication

again it ‘s a band aid…..
