April 16, 201312 yr In an effort to eliminate my TOD for good, i'm gonna swap out my oil pump, so i'm looking for a new one, but haven't found any that aren't priced very reasonably online. hoping to get some tips one tracking down one directly. and if i'm gonna be in there doing the oil pump, might as well do the water pump while i'm at it. they seem a lot cheaper than the oil pump, but if anyone has suggestions or a line on a water pump, i'd be very happy to know. thanks much!
April 17, 201312 yr Napa Auto Parts The water pumps have 2 length of stems. The non-turbo model uses the longer stem.
April 17, 201312 yr Napa Auto Parts The water pumps have 2 length of stems. The non-turbo model uses the longer stem.Actually it not "turbo or non turbo" It's factory a/c or dealer/non a/c. If the a/c compressor is inboard of the alt, it factory a/c Factory ac = short pump. 105mm All others = long pump. 110mm Edited April 17, 201312 yr by Gloyale

April 18, 201312 yr Pretty sure his is factory A/C. Factory A/C is inboard A/C, correct?Glen, looking at your engine from the front of the car, is your alternator on the far right side of the motor (driver's side) with nothing else further to the right of it other than the battery?
April 19, 201312 yr Author yup, @175eya is correct, nothing to the right of my altenator than the battery, except my spare hand-towel, wedged in between the battery and body...wonder where i picked that from, ha!

April 23, 201312 yr Author just an update, i spoke w/ the garage that fixed my timing belt when it went and they said they actually put in a new water pump, so that's one less thing i gotta buy... just ordered the oil pump, so hopefully, i'll be TOD free pretty soon. thanks everyone who helped on this.
