I know it's the waterpump squeeling because it sounded like it was coming from there and I used a little WD-40 on the back of it where you can see the pulley turning and the squeak stopped. My brother wants to drive it from Indiana to Colorado Monday and obviously shouldn't drive it on a failing waterpump. The idler pulley and serp. belt were replaced about 1,000 miles ago.

Is it difficult to replace the w/p on these? It doesn't look bad at all but I didn't know if there were any tricks to it. How does the tensioner work? Is it like Gm's where all you need is a breaker bar and a 15mm to ease the tension?
I need to order this part today or tomorrow and have it send over-night so please let me now what you think.

Thanks
David
