Believe me you wouldnt be first to say that, i just have a hard time letting go when i know somethings wrong and i admit, can get a little obsessive over it....but seeing as i finally found out the water pump was faulty i guess it worked out in the end lol....would have been a lot easier and saved a lot of time and headaches if the idiot before me hadn’t sealed up the weep hole though.....

Interesting side note....on a consistent basis i was getting a slip light everytime i would downshift and punch the gas from a 65mph roll....after changing out the pump, no matter how hard i try i can not get it to do that anymore.....

Did you top off your brake fluid recently? If brake reservoir level is a little bit low, it will trigger the light on hard acceleration.

Nope, brake fluid has been slightly above the max line throughout this whole ordeal
