I couldnt find the youtube video on replacing the pump i saw a while back. Good job getting it done though. How did you purge the system when you replaced the Coolant? Airlift or bleeder valve? Do you have a pic of the old water pump broken blade?

Yeah purging the air bubbles. Good job getting it done. Next time mine gives problems, I'm going to do it myself also. You may know but that the broken blade can clog. Keep a eye out for that. Here is a pic of my old one.http://986forum.com/forums/uploads01...1414176242.jpg

Did you replace that pump because of pulley play? Impeller looks alright

Mine was making a whistling noise. Bearings going perhaps.
