Well i am getting my first 240sx
it's a 92 coupe with a Ka24de
So i bought it for 800 bucks....which was my first mistake maybe
What i was told is that it overheated once on the freeway but it was because of a bad Radiator but nothing major happened.
Then i get told that it's leaking from around the Timing Cover Area and the Water pump.
Could i of got lucky and the water pump is just bad and the Head gasket isn't blown.
How can I check to make sure the it was never blown and that if i just replace the water pump i'll be good

Thanks guys

a FSM will be your best friend :wiggle:

Also, a compression test will determine if you have a blown HG
