I will agree to that. It worked just fine too! How did we get it back
tight enough? Didn't we have a long pry bar to hold the pully or

Keep track of which holes the water pump bolts go into. I ended up
having one left over when Gary and I replaced my timing chain.
BTW, replace the thermostat while you have the cooling system drained!
