Yeah, and why he's at it, he should also get the AC compressor and the
alternator replaced. (rolling eyes).

============

On what planet would the AC compressor make your **necessarily** car
stop
running? The word "necessarily" eliminates mentioning the one
exceptional
condition under which it might happen, because that situation is
avoidable
by operating a switch.

You obviously missed the point. No comment on the alternator? What
about the power steering pump...should he get that replaced also?

The whole concept of external vs. internal components hard for you to
grasp? You replace water pump with the rubber band timing belt because
the thing is apart anyway, and all you are paying for is the part. The
stuff hung off the engine is much less labor to change, other than the
evac/refill and pressure test on the A/C.


Please point out to me where the OP said the car in question has a
internal water pump driven by the timing belt, smartass.
===================

Everyone else in the discussion realized that we were talking about internal
water pumps. Case closed.
