jcibor1 Posted July 8, 2004 Share Posted July 8, 2004 How long have your '98 OBW water pumps lasted? I am going in for the dreaded head gasket job next week and was wondering if maybe I should have the water pump replaced as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tcspeer Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 How many miles? Have them check your idle pullys and timing belt also. I lost my 2.2 last week because of idle pully failure. Bent the valves in #1 #2 and #3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcibor1 Posted July 9, 2004 Author Share Posted July 9, 2004 133,000 miles. I had the timing belt done 20k ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tcspeer Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 Yes I think I would have water pump done while they are in their. I would think 133,000 is getting close to life span of pump. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commuter Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 If it wasn't already changed, I'd change it. Commuter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
