Ford suggests at 7years/105,000miles to do Timing Gear preventive maintenance support on 1997 Accords.
At 7 years and 36,139 miles, I'd the seller substitute the four devices and also the operating water pump that's pushed by
The time gear, and it is behind a cover.
Earlier this season, simply over five decades later, I observed coolant dripping underneath the vehicle. The seller changed a leaky water pump and also the four devices.
The brand new alternative water pump started dripping the moment it had been mounted
So that they needed to remove the four belts again, substitute the dripping water pump with another fresh water pump, and reinstall the four devices.
I sent American Ford two characters
Requesting them the next concerns:
1. Why did the Ford alternative water pump survived only over five decades, with only 39,618 miles onto it?
2. Why did the brand new Ford alternative water pump failed instantly out-of
The container?
3. Will the coolant that built about the new timing gear and stability canal gear influence their durability?
Up to now, I've not obtained a solution
And That I have possessed three Accords!
