Bearing in the water-pump seized randomly one day. It wasn't that old and wasn't weeping but also wasn't the highest quality as it was the only one I could get the weekend it needed to be replaced.
The new Napa one is stamped JAPAN and I feel much better about it.

Discovered that my control arm bolts were on finger tight while under the car.

I ordered some nyloc nuts as the stover nuts I purchased oh so long ago to prevent this marred up the threads too much to my liking so they weren't installed.
I also threw some ricer gold reflective foil on the High pressure AC line.

The cheapo foil the replacement line came with had already disintegrated. I need to get some additional metal zip ties but I'm feeling pretty good about it at present.
Here is an older pic from the summer Im not sure if I shared too.
