water pump/timing belt
my girlfriends car broke down recently and a neighbor who is mechanically inclined insists that its the water pump and insists that we should do a timing belt kit as well. I trust his judgement, and were going to buy the parts ourselves. What would a fair price for labor be?

Re: water pump/timing belt
her car is a 2006, and from what i understand, has a timing chain, not a belt. but because its an interference engine, its been suggested that we change the timing set when we do the water pump. does this hold any truth?

Re: water pump/timing belt
When I just recently purchased my 2007 Civic Si from my local factory trained Honda tech who runs his own Honda/Acura performance shop he indicated this exact sentiment when I ask when do you change the timing chain.
His reply, when the ECU tells you to with an MIL/CEL light and specific code. And told me the serpentine/drive belt was just replaced.
