All done!

Sunday, March 30th, 2008

All done putting in the new water pump on my white mustang! Only took about two hours — quickest damn job I’ve ever done. It’s a vast difference than it is trying to replace the water pump on a V6 or a V8 — those take hours, if not days.

I noticed my timing belt is starting to get kinda old in there, too, unfortunately.

Fortunately, I seriously don’t think it’s going to be that hard to do even that kinda job anymore — I’m starting to get to the point (in automotive maintenance) where the only thing holding me back is the availability of certain types of tools for the job, otherwise I’m thinking I could do damn near anything, car-wise.
