I have a buddy who has blown his water pump (07 5.9). Does anybody know a decent shop in the Battlefords? He makes his living with his truck so this is a bit tough on him.

Thanks

 

If he can find a waterpump and coolant, all he needs to change it is to remove the serpintine belt and remove the 2 10mm head bolts that hold the pump in.

 

Tell him to grab the tool kit for removing the serpintine belt.. makes that job ten minutes laying under the truck.. i had to do mine few weeks ago.. I found the kit at napa.. can't remember the price other then it was worth its weight in gold..

 

Is this the tool you mean?

There should be a John Deere or similar dealer in the Battlefords. Worst case is he could get it sent out on the bus from Cummins in Stoon...which is only 1.5 hrs away.
Should be a Napa in the Battlefords too.
