So I'm thinking I will get the parts and replace the tbelt and rollers, as well as the front oil seals, but not the water pump. Its got *maybe* 15k on it. D can I pick up the Tbelt tools from you when I come through? Any reason I should mess with the waterpump at all?
Pan gasket will be trickier, but is there anything I should do while I'm in there? Obviously make sure everything looks good internally. Maybe add a crank scraper?
And anything else I should do while I've got the lift? Pretty much everything else has been gone over and is fine.

i agree with rick, the waterpump should be good for one more t-belt cycle. i don't have t-belt tools. i do it by hand these days. sounds like you have the rest handled.
a crank scraper would be fun. also, check the oil sump pickup tube. they can fail, so you may as well make sure it is secured properly with no cracks or anything.

We saw a nasty wreck on I81 on the way back, a pickup towing a camper had some kind of failure on the trailer. It started to fishtail in front of us badly and the guy got it back with some very fancy driving then it darted left and snapped back to the right and flipped right off the road. Fortunately it came off the hitch so the truck never went over, but there was camper scattered all over the road.
Most of our drive was through the mountains of W.Va. so lanna had a great time, beth was a little green at times. |
good to hear the kids are good.
that accident sounds like some serious pucker. glad you are okay. it is amazing to see what is left of a camper after it leaves the roadway at speed....
i am a lucky guy: my wife LOVES fast drives through mountains in the 951.... she encourages me to go faster and faster and to "pass them, pass them." LOL!
