Re: [DMCForum] Water pump removed...

[DMCVIN6683 <dmcvin6683@xxxxxxxxx>]

1WPSKIT $28.00 is the silicone water hose kit off the back of the water 
pump that you can buy from PJ Grady www.pjgrady.com , replace with 
silicone and you will never visit that PRV valley of death again.

John Hervey sells all the crush washers you need at www.specialtauto.com

I used Permatex Blue RTV sealant on the back of my water pump just to 
be safe and on the O-Rings (X2) on the Y-Pipe to engine.

The Alternator belt is normally loosened at the adjuster on the 
Alternator mounting, look you will see it.

Clean the carbon if you wish.

I used Permatex Black RTV sealant on the intake O-Rings (X6) just to 
make sure i didnt have a vacuum leak.

No i do not work for Permatex but i can get you a deal at a 300% 
mark-up over retail if you wish.


Good luck

Mark V
