    Good guess. I got the oil filter bracket and canister, OPS and oil pan. I have some bypass filter stuff in storage that I'll eventually put on.

    When it arrived I was shocked at how shallow that oil pan is. I'd be surprised if it held much more than a quart of oil. Any engine with a leaking oil pan gasket will dump it's sump in a hurry.

    Pixel XL ?

    Hey I checked out the water pump, it turns by hand, it doesn't spin freely. It actually seemed kinda bined up or something. Bearing worn out or something. Not good!

    Thanks for circling back;).

    No bearings as it is a magnet driven pump:).

    Good data point (y).

    Hmm, so it's supposed to spin freely? Any theory's here?

    Might just be some impeller distortion over 9 years, not sure ;).

    Trying to get as much info from in service pumps to see commonality :).

    Since the coolant is not getting through the liner and onto the bearings, it’s not magnet failure ;).

    Thanks for the data(y).

    The everything but the oil pan, oil pressure sensor, oil pan, oil filter housing, and egr cooler. Water pump is taken off but you can have that. I'd take $70.
