951 is fixed. sort of.

i found that it was the hose connected to the water pump fitting was terribly loose. so loose i could just pull if off. how in the world this thing stayed together this long, i have no idea. it wasn't me.... it was the shop that touched the water pump last time.

also, that plastic fitting comes plugged, because the same pump is used on turbo and non-turbos. for the turbo, you drill the end out, leaving the flange on the fitting. the shop chose to cut the end of the fitting off, along with the flange. again, how this didn't just pop off under pressure, i have no idea.

anyway, i wish i'd found the loose hose, before dropping the coolant.

when the new plastic fitting shows up, i'll be taking it apart and replacing that fitting. i think i'll reuse the coolant, as it is brand new.

i also took the opportunity to change the oil and filter.
