What Timing Belt Kit and Water Pump Kit Do You Recomend? 90K Service
OK.. So given my VUE is going to be at the shop for 2 months (because I don't have time to cope with it now and im gonna be travaling for 2 months) I am going to have the following done:
Oil Change New Plugs New Coil Packs (CEL Light) New Crank Sensor New Thermostat and Thermostat Housing (It says 3rd design, thinking I should just replace it) Intake Manifold Gasket Check Valve Covers (They where done 9K ago, should be ok) New Water Pump New Timing Belt Replace 2nd Fuel Pump Replace Drive Belt New A/C Compressor (If i can afford it) Two things: While he's in there, should we yank and replace the Alternator? I have no record of it being replaced and the truck has 170K.... Everything seems fine with it, but...... Anything Missing? Also what brands do you recommend? I am ordering parts through rock auto, so has to be submitted by sunday night, need the crap here by March 15th |

Re: What Timing Belt Kit and Water Pump Kit Do You Recomend? 90K Service
I have had all fluids changed within the last 6K, I will also provide him with a bottle of GM Coolent...
Also what plugs should I get? Bosch Platinums Water Pumps I am eyeing: http://www.rockauto.com/catalog/more...602&cc=1388561 Preferred for the Iron parts, but is that bad? http://www.rockauto.com/catalog/more...450&cc=1388561 Or is this better? This is OEM I think |

This is the cheaper option and I know alot of people swear by Gates belts http://www.rockauto.com/catalog/more...194&cc=1388561 The OEM belt, but $60 more.. Worth it? |
