hey guys I have a 08 Taurus that had the water pump go out. The water pump is internal and basically dumped all the coolant into my oil. I just drained it and emptied the rest of the coolant. I know it’s basically a timing job, but I don’t know who to buy the parts from. I looked on rock auto and there’s a lot of manufacturers. I also called ford and they priced all the parts at 800$+. on rock auto it seems to be less than 300 for everything I need. Just worried about bad quality parts as it’s a long job and I don’t want to have to do it twice. if anyone else has worked on these engines and has any tips please let me know!
Motorcraft is the OEM for your vehicle (Ford). I would imagine the part you buy from them is the same as the one they put in when they built your car at the factory.
