Well, I was able to replace the waterpump today with all of your tips!!! And John M, you are right, I could not keep that stupid little O-Ring in the water pump while getting it positioned. So, I put a couple small dabs of grease as well! It worked. Also, I replaced the Timing Cover Gasket and it is not leaking from the spot it was but is now POURING out of another spot...ughhh!!! I even put the dabs of MB grease at the tips after cleaning out all of the old gasket and RTV sealant someone else had used. Do you guys think I installed it wrong or does it have to work in and seal itself. The waterpump, new belt, tensioner, seem just fine. Good news, is, I just have to remove plug wires and timing cover to get at it. Not as big of deal as I expected but a pain.
