I did everything..... and forgot to put the $#%@*() coupler on. All that work and no waterpump drive.
I get to do it all over tomorrow after work.
Ohmigosh. That's a stinker. Sounds like a vacuum-sealed cranium.
I can see it already - put all the sockets back, wrenches off the plenum, pliers screwdrivers off the fan shield, start to pour the coolant in the filler HUH WHAT'S THIS ON THE GROOVE IN THE FILLER TANK? aaaaarrrrrrrgggggggg.
That's a REAL stinker uh huh.
I had a problem with my coupler too. Too much grease on each shaft, and a little in the coupler for good measure, and guess what wouldn't 'squeeze out', and let the pump drive go in??? A clue - it wasn't the MAF connector nope.
I pulled it, trying to not contaminate the gaskets, removed some grease, and tried again. Same no-go. Tried driving with the bolts a little at a time, and heard a pop, which did NOT sound like a grease fart, and decided to do it again, before I broke more stuff.
