Water pump and thermostat questions

Rotary#10 · 08-12-2009, 12:28 AM

Hey folks the waterpump on my FC 90 gtus resently started rattling at the pulley and i knew it was bad. ( Haynes manual said it was the bearing) so i pulled it and put in the other one from my 91 couple only to find out that it was frozen or seized. So now im buying new water pump but i'd also like to know if i should also buy a thermostat while im in that area. So would ya'll recommend I buy a theromstat? I think its a good idea though. Thanks for your imput.
