Water Pump ?

My 1990 S also had the same screech at start-up. Harmonic balancer was fine. The screech was intermittent but would sometimes appear a while after startup and continue for 10 to 20 seconds. New belts were installed and the screech continued occasionally. I found that the water pump began leaking around this time. The screeching has stopped but the pump leaks worse now. Check for coolant with cardboard under car after running for a while, my leak was minimal at first but has gotten worse. At 137K, it's time to replace the water pump (unless already replaced), pumps are around $50 aftermarket. Airtex is a good pump available at wrenchead.com, don't buy a remanufactured pump to save $10.
