Water pump leaking
I noticed coolant pooling around the base of the water pump lately on my '82 928 (U.S.). In fact, I've been going through about a 1/2 gallon of coolant per week recently. The car has about 75,000 miles and I was going to replace the timing belt and then get at the water pump at the same time. Do you think I need to replace the water pump, or is it just the gasket between the pump and block?
One more question, do you think this is a weekend job for someone with some mechanical inclination? I can do most of the work I have tried on the engine but I have never attempted a timing belt change before.
Thanks.
Brian
