The shop was able to get the engine back together. I picked the car up Tuesday evening. Ran great and the glow plugs operated like they should.

After work on Thursday I walk out to the garage to get in my car and go home and notice that the low coolant light is on. I pop the hood and notice that it is really low. Then I notice the big pool of coolant under the car!

I look under the car to see the coolant dripping out near the alternator, above that the front the of the water pump was dry. That's odd. Had the car towed back to the shop. Mechanic happened to be there working late. Took one look at it...probably the water pump. So back into the shop it goes! I don't think the failure of the water pump has anything to do with pulling the head...just a coincidence...any opinions on that?

Once I'm done with this car there will be nothing left to fix or replace!
