Default Re: timing belt and water pump

If your paying a mechanic to do the timing belt, it's a no-brainer to do the water pump at the same time. The original may go bad or it may not...why take the chance of having to pay the same labor rate again vs. the price of a water pump. MIKEINAUSTIN has the right idea...change everything while it's open. I'd still change it if I were doing it myself...why run the risk of losing x-hours of your time redoing work you already did?
