Swap parts question!
Hey,
I started the process of 6G72 swap (Stratus engine), and it was going well until Igot to the poingof replacing timing belt tensioner hydraulic unit! I found one at Mitsubishi dealership (cheaper that Dodge) and just want to make sure that it will fit properly? I can use the old one, but I would rather not take any chances and replace it while the engine is out!
One more question, how reliable are the remanuf. water pumps? Or should I get the brand new one?
Thanks in advance
PS For those who interested, the reason for the swap was a destroyed, and I mean destroyed 2.5L engine! 8 broken valves, 4 shot pistons! And all because of the serpantine belt! Will post pics when done with the swap!
