broken stud; shop recommendations near San Diego?
I was in the process of replacing the water pump but have hit a snag. The stud on the right most part of the water pump (facing the engine from the front) snapped. On top of that, the remaining studs seem to be bent in such a way that the housing won't come off.
I'm thinking this is where I bow out and bring the car to a shop. Does anybody have any recommendations as far as where I should take the car? The engine was running fine so I don't necessarily have to go to a rebuild specialist.
It's an 89 turbo if that matters at all.
I have most of the parts, short of a couple of odds and ends that are on their way. I don't have replacement studs either.
cheers!
