I never replace the nipple ( I have 98 so its the same as 99+ do dont have to replace the it ) or the water pump 0-ring. But this time I would like to replace them, cause they came as a kit.
You should have the belt in place to help hold the pulley but you will also have to wedge something against the pulley to keep it from moving. I used a big screwdriver and held it against the block to keep the pulley tight.
I loose all 4 bolt, and cant get the water pump to loose, any trick ?
I use the breaker bar and accident break one, of then side of water pump, now I dont care wat it take to take out this water pump, please let me know, thanks
and one more thing about coolant nipple, im i support to get a socket that fix on that nipple and hammer it ?
when I take out the intake I saw a plastic and cover a big hole, its right under the intake ? what that big hole for ?
Is felpro had 2 different part # for 99-2004 ? cause 99-00 is same part # and it diffrent from 2001-04 part number ? I have 2004 intake, should I go with 2001-04 gasket ? thanks
My last change is throw in a bottle of gasket repair before giving up hope on this old stang, ITS ****ING WORK , NO MORE LEAK, NO MORE SMOKE, CAR RAN strong as hell, now I can drive it every day, and dont have to borrow my dad car any more.
