One and the same. Good to hear from you too! Haven't really had a lot 
of time to stay up on the list since starting here in Mississippi, but 
I try to check in now and again. Tried sending Mark V. an email or two 
but never got a response, and I never got either of you two's email 
addresses.
I was thinking since I've got the original water pump on still that 
maybe that squealing noise was it not rotating freely causing the belt 
to slip and work itself loose, as Martin also suggested. After 
retightening it the day before yesterday and having a good look at it, 
I was a bit uncomfortable and took some tools and an extra belt with 
me to work yesterday. Sure enough, just as I was driving out of the 
flightline on my way home from work it broke, so I had to do a little 
roadside swap. Hopefully this one lasts longer. I've been scared to 
replace the water pump so far because I've read that you're almost 
certain to snap one of the bolts trying to remove it and I don't have 
any experience drilling out broken bolts; I figured as long as it's 
working why get myself into a jam. Looks like I may have little choice 
soon?
