Well Inga, my old faithful 1986 245 DL 150k+ had some trouble today.

She threw both fan belts going to the water pump. The Alt is belt free also. Got really hot before I noticed and got her off the freeway. The water pump feels really tight. Has anyone else had the Water Pump Bearing go out? There has been an extra squeal under the hood. The alt is pretty new. I don't want to put on new belts and have it eat them again. By the way, no warning light on the Alt!

Any ideas? You guys have never steered me wrong yet.

PS: Started it back up after in cooled down and no miss. So it looks like the head did not warp (I hope). It was running kind of rough, but there was water everwhere. Ran better a couple of hours later.

Any tricks to the water pump, the fan looks kind of strange to get off. Of course it was dark, the car was hot, and I was depressed.
