First, i'm not a big Chevy guy, but I got a '91 s-10 Blazer with a leaking water pump for $200, and knowing how bad these things rot out and the light rust thats on it...couldn't pass it up.
Anyway, I've done a water pump on one of these before...and ran into a problem that many others have told me about and I would like to avoid this time: an easy way to install the pump without those stupid little gaskets sliding around too much causing, well, a do-over. Like I said this happened to me last time and I was lucky enough to get them lined up fine the second time.
Any good hints or tips or just put them on and pray for the best? I had the old pump out in half a hour so no help needed there....just need a good way to reinstall. Oh, and may I say....this is one of the stupidest designs GM came up with.
