And people think changing the timing and balance shaft belts is bad....Try changing the thermostat....

Kinja'd!!!

Also....Snap rings: the work of car Satan.....they’re evil. I’ve lost more blood to removing and still trying to instal this snap ring back in the water pump than I’ve in paper cuts in the last 5 years!!!

Also will be explained in Ep 10 of 944 Life. BE THERE THIS WEEKEND.....Maybe?

Im pretty sure I have to remove my water pump to get to my thermostat.. which requires removing my timing chain

I just have to remove the hose from the lower radiator to the water pump, and remove a snap ring to get my thermostat. It’s just that the snap ring removal takes FOREVER.

“Hey Lucas, we need to connect hose to pump, pass me that hose clamp”

“Hose clamp, no no.. lets use a snap ring instead”

“Sure why not””

Ah gotcha. I know your pain though. I’ve had spring back, hit something and insert themselves into my finger before. Smaller than that, maybe a little bigger than a quarter that go into a freeze plug.
