What else when changing timing belt/water pump?
 

As 180k approaches, I'm forced to replace the water pump.

The fools at the dealership changed the timing belt at 90k, but not the water pump... sheesh.

I was going to do the second-90,000 maintainence anyway, so no big loss.

My question is, what else should routinely be replaced while the mechanic is in there? Water pump, timing belt of course, and I understand some pulleys and oil seals of some sort.

Anyone know which pulleys and seals, and what else needs doing in there?

Thanks in advance

Off the top of my head, you should also include all fluid changes (coolant, transmission, differential, brake, engine oil, power steering), inspect the serpentine drive belt for wear or missing pieces, B&G 44K treatment, clean the throttle body, change air filter, change A/C filter (if comes with car), change spark plugs (if necessary).

Do a search for "90k service" in this forum and you'll get a number of results.

When I had my wife's done they said they check the pump and donot always need to change them. They said my wife's was fine and left it.
On the other hand my Villager broke it's original belt (222,222 miles) and the Mercury dealer used a rebuilt water pump and it went out 7 months later from a crappy bearing.
