Need 1955 "88" help
Hi guys, I am needing some info on my 1955 Olds 88.. Today what sounds like the water pump started making some noise. I believe the bearing are gone in it. It looks like it simply unbolts around the perimeter (bolted to the timing cover) after removing the fan. Is it that simple?
Also, I need a source for a replacement pump.
Thirdly (is that a word?), the fuel pump has two lines coming off of the top of it. These appear to be vaccuum. Is this correct?
Thanks!
Warren..

Yes, it is a 324, sorry I should have stated that. I assume both lines on top of the fuel pump are vacuum? They go to a tee and then to the wiper motor..
Never seen it set up that way, but hey if it works..
BTW, I put 1955 by mistake.. it is a 1956..
