I had a mechanic put a sway bar on my car today and he checked for my coolant leak, he finds out it is coming from the waterpump and told me i need to replace it real soon, im looking for the cheapest (partstore) i can get it, this car is starting to get on my nerves by nickeling and diming me to death

 

Better tack a $400 opti spark on there too.

I'd check around online for the waterpump. Maybe even ebay, you never know.

Opti-$187-Jason Cromer

Ouch, a '93, you can probably convert to an vented opti for less than cost of a non-vented.

 

Autozone wont have that pump in stock til monday, and the mechanic said that the leak hasnt hit the opti yet so im gonna drive it as less as possible til i get it fixed

 

Want some good advice? If you havent already parked that thing do it now.. put something in there that will keep the water off the opti.. IF you run that thing for a couple of days you will smoke check the opti.. a $50 fix now will have turned into a $450 journey..
the conversion is a little more complex than than.. need to get and hanfdul of gm parts, a 95 timing cover, new opti unit and a newer cam..

Park that thing until you can replace that water pump... or get out the checkbook..

 

its parked right at the mechanics garaged and im gonna try another autozone tomorrow before i got back home this weekend, thanks guys for the helpful information

 

If it were me I'd go electric since the pump is out anyway. Summit has the CSI for 135.00 everyday.
