V6 water pump rules... Posted by Larry West [Email] (#1140) [Profile/Gallery] (more from Larry West) on Fri, 26 Oct 2012 07:52:04 In Reply to: Replacing water pump, James Morris, Fri, 26 Oct 2012 06:04:33 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
My personal rules for V6 water pumps:
Replace it if one of the following are true:
1) this is the second TB that you know went in the car, and the WP was NOT replaced last time
2) the is your first TB for the car, and you do not know if or when it was replaced last, regardless of mileage
It takes 100% of the labor to access the WP as it does to access the TB, so unless you know the full history of that water pump, you're better off doing it than not.
