Problems with cooling on my 1995 camry

[jholiman4566]

I've had torefill my radiator several times in the past two months I went to a radiator dealer and bought stopleak. And poured it in there. Well it kept leaking so the next few days I kept refilling it. And I went back and he pumped my radiator and my water pump is bad. So I was wondering is that all that's wrong or should I replace my radiator and waterpump together. I don't know what to do other than buy a new water pump. I need recommendations and a price range. Thanks.

I have a 1995 LE with a 2.2 4 cylinder automatic transmission.

If the water pump has been pin pointed as the cause of leaking; you're going to need that entire timing belt kit because the water pump is driven of the timing belt. Replace the tensioner, idler, spring, and the t-belt along with the water pump. The cam and crank seals are optional if it’s leaking, crack, or dry. The oil pump seals can be done now too. The kit with water pump varies anywhere from $70 to over $200. Shop around.

Also, replace the thermostat along with the radiator and refill the cooling system with 50/50 red Toyota coolant and distilled water.

If the radiator is in good shape it will not be necessary to replace it when replacing the water pump/timing belt.
