Waterpump!!please Help

Well heres the deal guys,


I noticed my temp gauge mving all oer the place, so I popped the hood and noticed that my belt was all wet! with coolant. i narrowed it down to it coming from the weephole un der the water pump. and it only does it every now and then, but i wanna replace the pump along with the opti since im gonna be down there anyway.

Has anyone experienced what idid (coolant on the belt?)

HWERE CAN I GET THESE PARTS CHEAPLY????? OEM IF POSSIBLE


It is a 94 T/a/......NON vENTED OPTI!!


tHANK YOU ALL IN ADVANCE

That's the first sign of waterpump failure, fluid out the weep hole. Contack Jason Cromer or Dal - both GM dealerships giving great parts discounts.

Yes, because the weep hole (where it usually leaks) is directly over the crank pulley.
