97 Olds 88 , I think it's one of the pulley bearings,possibly water pump bearings,doesn't happen when cold, but when warm you can hear it, but not on accerleration,thought it might have been the belts,but put on belt dressing and it's still there. Anyway to lubricate them either spray, or otherwise ? Any idea what a new water pump would cost,installed ?
Thanks
Thanks

Mine started leaking, thats when I knew it was gone. Not pretty.
I have done this myself. The cost of the part is a non-issue. I can't remember what I paid, but it was less than $100.00. What costs is the labor. It is fairly involved. I have done it twice and it took about eight hours for me. Thats why I am not a mechanic by trade. I'd starve. I would estimate cost in the $400-500 range.
