Found the problem with our 1998 and it was NOT what I thought.
1. Lower section of the Radiator was COVERED in trash See the picture.
2. The WATER pump looked great no wobble UNTIL it was out and you spun the pulley your could FEEL the drag that was the bearing going away.
3. Belt Was Good no slip at all
4. Fan clutch was just DIRTY cleaned it up and it worked like it was supposed to.
So in recap
Radiator EBAY $232.00
Water Pump Rover North $89.50
Tools Atlantic British Fan Clutch $49.95
Rovers North Fan tool $16.90
Sears 24 mm wrench $18.95
Then your basic tool kit
Again see the pictures

Should be able to post "attachments" from your box when you hit the "Go Advanced" button on the reply.

PT Schram wasn't so happy about the plastic tanked, aluminum cored rads. Didn't think they'd last as long as the originals.
