Water Pump bearing has colapsed on 3 waterpumps.
Replaced radiater with larger unit.
Remote transmission cooler.
This car is more a street-machine, so I spend time keeping it running sweet. It`s super reliable and super quik. GTS interior, B&M shifter, locked diff & huge rubber.
This car is in top condition at 31 years old, I love her and will never ever part with it.
I think that your water pump problem would have a lot to do with who is working on your car. I the work had been done properly you would only had to change one water pump. Parts are cheap.
