Default Re: Old newbe needs help

I sure have received some good advice here. Next week I will follow up and see what I can do with the problem.
Hopefully, I can make contact with a good mechanic nearby.
Thanks to all.

There is an improved T-Bird pump spacer available that significantly improves flow thru the water pump.
But it isn't inexpensive...
