Wow what a job..[img]smileys/smiley11.gif[/img]
94' 130k mi. Ultra[img]smileys/smiley16.gif[/img]</span>
</span>My water pump broke apart.[img]smileys/smiley7.gif[/img] The GM part flange to shaft unwelded and the pulley flew off to take
out my belts and they burned a hole in my power steering pump's plastic secondary resovoir.[img]smileys/smiley19.gif[/img]
2 belts $60</span>
1 water pump $22</span>
1 power steering pump $72</span> (epoxied it.. -$72)
Coolant $7
Power steering fluid $5</span></span>
MY Total Damages.. $166 In parts. </span>
Took me 6 hours and a six pack. All from the topside.
Remove = (R)
R Battery + terminal
Drain coolant. (to later get heater hoses out of the way)
Support engine with jack and board.
R Right motor mount completely. (just loosen lower bolts on fender) .
Jack Lift motor further carefully with board on oil pan.
R Cross over strut support (makes it easier)
R Serpantine belts
R Alternator completely (makes it easier)
R Coolant Resovoir (makes it easier)
R Dual Idler wheel
R Loose Power steering pump push it back for bolts access.
R Heater hose tubes. (pop out)
R Loose Aux support (Gen, Power steering) aluminum frame and push it back
[img]smileys/smiley12.gif[/img]Just about now you can get to that one bolt under the Power steering/Alt support frame.
</span>
R Water pump
[img]smileys/smiley10.gif[/img]Reverse to replace.</span> </font>
<br style="font-weight: bold;">
Not really bad but.. most cars are a little easier.[img]smileys/smiley8.gif[/img] </span>

nice write up. just lacks pics. pics could possibly be sticky potential.
and know wht ya mean. it took me a good 3 hours on my 92. which is just L eng so it was a lil easier. but i change the w-p on my 89m 4.3L s-10, and was done in like 30 mins.
