water pump replacement?
98 Camaro LS1, Water pump leaking at the weephole behind the pulley.
I bought a new pulley, did all the work to remove it and find that my water pump has a press on big pulley that cannot be removed and the one I purchased for my 98 has 4 bolt holes..
What is up with this? Can I buy a bolt on pulley somewhere or do I need to exchange this for a water pump with a pressed on pulley, and what vehicle do I get it from?

You are wasting your time messing with the pulley. The water pump is bad and you are going to have to replace the entire assembly. A new pump for a F-Body will come with the pulley already installed

Sorry I must have typed it up wrong, look at the picture at the top, that is what I got from the auto parts store, do I ned a new pulley to put on the NEW pump or do i need to return the NEW pump and find a different NEW waterpump that already has the pressed on pulley on it to replaced my current BROKEN waterpump?

If you play World of Warcraft then you already know that the livelihood of your character and his/her strength is dependent on how much gold you have. This directly impacts how fast you can level and what kinds of guilds you can get into!I think, rather than wasting real money buying gold, why not just play smarter so that you can earn more gold in the game naturally - it's more fun that way anyways! You won't have to play longer hours, just play more efficiently so you're focusing on the things that pay the most.Buy Guild Wars GoldCheap Guild Wars GoldGW GoldLord of the Rings Online GoldCheap LOTRO Gold
