Default Anyone near JMU wanna install a waterpump?

Is there anyone that can help me replace my waterpump? I've looked at some diy guides and it doesn't look too hard, I just don't have the tools to do it because I'm at school. Or if someone knows anyone that can do it for fairly cheap, I'm a broke college student. Willing to put up some cash/beer!

To do this install you have to pull the timing belt.

Not a hard install but when it's cold outside and a cramp space to work in with just hand tools, I can see some cuss words being said to the car

Ok, so the obvious answer to this one is, make your room mate pay for it...and if he doesn't have the funds, cheap little bastard, make his parents pay. Simple? Yes.

Oil leaking from the valve cover is a simple valve cover gasket change.

Blown headgasket equals fluids leaking between the block and head. Most likely white smoke coming out of the exhaust or oil in the antifreeze. Drain your oil and see if it's milky.

Could have your car running in no time but it's to damn cold to be working on it outside. I can tow it to a garage and we can work on it.

But gas + my time = money.
