My wife's new-to-her 1987 300D Turbo (complete with #14 head ) has a small coolant drip from the water pump weep hole. Our mechanic recommends changing the pump and it seems to be a job I can tackle myself. While I'm at it, I'll change the serpentine belt (cracked/old) and the belt tensioner (tilted a little).

Phil has two choices for this engine's water pump (customer pays the second price):

G3000-32084 Geba $169.00 $79.62

G3000-32084 Laso $169.00 $105.93

Anyone have experience with either of these? I have no objection to saving more money but don't want to buy trouble, either.

Jeremy
