i have a 94 st, is the waterpump connected to the timing belt? is it the same labor? because my car overheated and the waterpump went out, i needed it fixed fast so i took it to a shop and he told me that to change the timing belt its a totally different labor and would cost alot more for more labor. i read the walkthough of the waterpump and timing belt change on here but that was a on a gt. anoy

Get a second opinion - I'm not sure about your mechanic's info, but I do think that while it's *some* extra labor to do the timing belt, it's not major and it's definitely something you want to do together while it's all opened up
