My Advice Posted by Justin VanAbrahams [Email] (#32) [Profile/Gallery] (more from Justin VanAbrahams) on Thu, 22 Mar 2001 17:30:12 In Reply to: Saab continuum - Water Pump, Harold, Thu, 22 Mar 2001 13:27:49 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
If you're changing the water pump, I would strongly advise taking the opportunity to at least replace the top radiator hose(s) and that ANNOYING little elbow off the front of the head at the same time. If you've not done it in recent memory, these two hoses will explode the moment you put everything back together and run it for a while. If you're feeling saucy, you may also want to replace the lower radiator hose (PITA) and the thermostat. My personal opinion is that once the coolant is drained, you might as well change all the hoses, too... Shouldn't cost more than $60 or $70 in hoses plus the thermostat...
