[V8] Water pump leaking

[Ron Wainwright]

Were did you get that from? I've never used one of
those WP's.
 & you must have a 4.2 if your tension is 138mm. Cause
the 3.6 measurement is 130-133mm.

 What other parts did you change? & how many miles on
the car when you did the work?

 But a leaky pump is unaceptable. I'd change it out.
