where to get water pump & radiator
Well, the 85 is still at the shop. After carb rebuild, oil cooler fix, ect..now the water pump & radiator are leaking. If you wuz me, where would you get them? Dealer is $151 for pump, $413 for radiator!! Mazdatrix is $51 and $201. I love this car, but it's slowly eatin' up the ol' bank account. I'm a little hesitant about the junkyard, you don't know what you're getting for sure.
Suggestions? Thanks!

Radiator cools great.
Any auto parts store will carry a reman water pump for under $40.

I would get the pump from mazda trix because it is the same the dealer sales. Your dealer is ripping you off, the part is 55.00 from my dealer.
I would by the radiator from anywhere.

Just don't get an aftermarket water pump... they're a crap design compard to the OEM ones.
As far as the radiator goes you should upgrade it to a 3-row core. (assuming the 85 stocker is a 2-row)

I got the radiator coming from MIKE-P (THANKS!!) and just ordered the pump from mazdatrix, just to make sure I get one that works. They're not all that much there, anyway.
Thanks for all the help!!
Wonder why some dealers have different prices for stuff than others??
