Sittin at wendy's smokin...waterpump??
Well, pulled into wendy's an 1hr ago and noticed that the needle was almost on red. Pulled into a parking space and could tell she was steaming. Coolant is coming out under the thermostat so i'm guessing the water pump right? The whole system needs replace, but I can't afford that right anymore(was gonna have a new Modine soon ). It's leaked somewhere on the passenger side for sometime now off and on. The a squealing appeared until it would warm up a few weeks ago. So I'm thinking the bearings went out. The temp guage would also bounce back and forth 10-20degrees sometimes. Sending unit or more proof it's the waterpump? Now gotta see if they'll let me do it in their parking lot or if i'll have to get it towed. I'm gonna read the Haynes now so any ideas? How hard is it. Doesn't look that hard. Any and all info would be great. Thanks
