Hey guys, i have a v6 vit and i noticed a small pool of coolant under it this morning. I assume the water pump has gone. The best i can see is the coolant is dripping out of an unplugged hole behind the main crank pulley. I think. Does this sound normal? Also it looks like its going to be fun to replace, i have a leaking rear main im fairly sure as well.

Options :1 Pull engine out and put a 2.5 :)
2 Replace water pump
3 Pull engine out and replace water pump and clutch and rear main.
4 Burn it.

Sounds like the water pump to me.

How you repair it is up to you.

Well i think i have made up my mind. The engines coming out and a 2.5 is going in. Have to start it eventually so why not now. (also a sneaky way to not let the missus no im upgrading the motor).

Anyone know of a low km 2.5 v6 for sale?

Is it possible for me to pull the motor and gearbox from a 2.0l v6 vit in one go. If i remove the radiator to give me some more clearence then maybe??

I haven't tried it but I'd say it wouldn't be easy as the gearbox/transfer is quite long.

I'd undo the bellhousing bolts and remove them seperately.

Yeh cheers mate sounds good. there is 4 bellhousing bolts and then 2 studs with nuts on them. Does the starter motor have to come out first or is it attached to the bell housing.

:peaceout: Ok cheers mate. I should only have the starter and i have to cut the two bolts where the exhaust meets up they are as rusty as a nuns.......

And then she is ready to pull. Might have jumped the gun a bit though as i dont have a replacement. hahah. Does anyone know any go fast things apart from forced induction u can do to salvage some more power out of these?
