Why should I replace my water pump with my timing belt?

Your timing belt should be replaced every 60,000 to 90,000 miles and of course that depends on your specific engine. Your water pump is driven by the timing belt, so it has the same amount of wear and hours as your timing belt. It's in your best interest to replace it at the same time to prevent a breakdown or a costly repair. Plus as Jason always puts it "it's cheap insurance." Give us a call and let us take care of you.  Happy Adventures, Heather

Why did my car overheat?

Your vehicle could overheat from several reasons, one being that the water pump is no longer pumping antifreeze/coolant into your engine. It's called a water pump but it's really a coolant/antifreeze pump. It circulates the antifreeze/coolant from your engine and radiator keeping your engine at the proper temperature.   Give us a call and let us take care of you and your automotive needs.  Happy Adventures, Heather
