There arent any oreillys on the east coast, i have car quests near me, i picked the water pump up with the mechanic discount for $30 brand new and im 20 minute drive away from the east coast quadratec but id take the $30 anyday

 

Update: changed water pump and gasket along with thermostat and housing (because it cracked when i was taking it off), replaced with new everything and no more running hot! The water pump gasket had blown out on the top and would leak coolant and the thermostat housing gasket was also leaking now it stays below 210, (have CSF triple pass radiator) and its great

 

I also did the hard line delete its definitely worth it

 

What is a hard line delete?

Where r u located? I noticed u mentioned that u are 20 mins away from quadretec in west chester? I'm in newtown square.

 

Niiice, im up near pottstown...... If you look at the previous picture, youll notice that the black soft line goes all the way down to the water pump, the only way to take the hard line off is to take the pump off, i figured while its off i might as well throw a threaded hose adapter in it because my hard line was pretty rusted, ill try to grab some more pictures

 

Lol that's funny cause I got a brand new hard line and new water pump at junkyard today

 

From Harry's u pull it in pennsburg

 

Niice, id say go down to a car quest and grab the piece im talking about, its only $5 and its much better then having to take the pump off again just to fix that line, how much u pay for the pump? I know car quest has brand new ones for $30ish thats where i got mine

 

I bought the water pump for 10 bucks. Hard line was free because it was still on the pump. Also bought a brand new starter for 15 bucks too

 

Not bad, but id still recommend that piece, after looking through my oem hard line id be scared to put another back on because of the pitting and serious rust haha

 

Really? So it is that bad? Yeah maybe I should remove the hard line after all..

 

Details on the "triple pass" rad?

 

Its a CSF full brass (tanks are also brass) and triple pass meaning 3 pipes wide instead of the standard double pass rad which is just 2 pipes running though, i got mine off ebay for $200 with free shipping, much much cheaper them even a ****ty oem double pass from anywhere else, it works so well, keeps the temp gauge lower when wheeling

 

Yeah id definitely suggest it and its a cheap replacement, i was originally going to stick with the hard line till other steered me clear of it

 

Oh ok, u mean 3 row, not triple pass. Big difference.
