Default My Winter Project

This has been a project since day one of me starting this project. First I had a water pump bolt break in the water pump housing, second broke the spline that drives the water pump on the timing cover side because I was unable to pull the water pump off straight because of the broken bolt. Here a picture of my bad water pump, leaking from the weep hole.
