While doing an oil change on my wifes '94 T-A (LT-1), I noticed the water pump starting to go south. I went ahead and pulled it out, and sure enough the seal is toasted in the back. It's been leaking for a couple weeks looks like. Now of course I start quizing the wife about things (I rarely drive the car - the Vette is mine !!) She tells me the low engine coolant light has been intermitently coming on.....And she's recently noticed an occasional rough idle and stumble a few times. SOOO, the question is, while I have the water pump off, should I take the optispark off, disassemble and clean it up ? I know these things have a history of failure. The previous owner of my Corvette had just replace the optispark on it before I bought it. That was at about 50,000 miles. The T/A has 45,000 - So I'm thinking it might be about ready to go. Is it worth cleaning these things ? Do they start missing here and there before they totally go out ? Any suggestions - comments appreciated.
Thanks,
Rob
