Leaking Waterpump?
I got my 90 out of storage yesterday and found a small pool of coolent under it. I filled it up (took maybe a liter) and drove around a little then home. It didn't over heat and worked very well. Today I see another small pool of coolent under the front cross member right about where the pump is, had a look with the flashlight and it has a drip every so often from the bottom of the waterpump.. looks like its leaking from the gasket?
My question's are: Where can I get a reasonably priced pump and gasket? How much work is it to change? Does anyone have detailed instruction on how to go about this?
Looks like it may take a little time to do this job and while I'm at it is there anything else I should look at?.
Thanks, Tom

Job isnt as bad as it looks (just be patient), just clean the area real good and dont miss any bolts. Hardest part for me was getting the stupid lower hose clamp and hose off. May as well replace the hoses while youre at it and get ahold of Randy Woods for a lower temp stat.
