Thanks, Kram. I'll watch for that... as I've read it can be a pain to install. And that leads me to a question:
Couldn't that hard plastic pipe be replaced with some rubber tubing? Maybe a cut here... a cut there... introduce the rubber hose and worm-drive clamp to hold it together?
Burg... WP replaced <1K ago along with LTT. MM replaced while I was in there.
The serpentine belt looks fine... no squealing... no cracks... nice and snug. However, I'm not sure when last it was replaced. It seems rather solid. So... preventative replacement... or wait until next time I'm in there?
Thanks, Fellas!
