I feel like I am performing surgery without a doctors license. I'm guessing a 3 hour water pump should take me 2 days. Jeep has been sitting idle for 11 months because the water pump was failing. I should have paid attention to my Uncle working on engines.

Hope it goes well, get new belts on while you are in there
You know that thought in your head that says "I hope I didn't leave a rag in that hole before I put the new pump on", well that thought is screaming in my head right now. I know I didn't but the doubt is there.Quote:

Managed two out of four this week. Left the hose running all night after I cleaned out the swamp cooler, and neighbor came by to tell me my garage was open and he closed it.Quote:

The wp on my Cherokee gave 0 warning. Noticed a small pool of coolant and started overheating a 1/4 mile later.

Thats why it will take two days getting the hoses this morning. That and getting proper hose clamps to replace those quick clamps.Quote:
