Thank you. Been look at videos that show this. Most of them have poor camera control and/or are rendered at low resolution. I do wish you had noted in the title of the video that it was a NA MR2. Not a big deal for me (mine is also a NA). Many videos do not tell you in the title if it is a NA or turbo. Wasted a lot of time watching videos that do not tell you this until they get started. I do wish you had some sort of like laser pointer or something so that you could indicate what you are talking about. Using your finger to point does work but it isn't the best solution. This isn't just specific to just you, seems like no repair videos do this. At least you tried to point at the stuff some videos don't even do that, they just point the camera and say loosen the bolt (not very helpful).
@@FunkieStelf well i have a weter pump and alternator failure. im 100% sure of the water pump failure to circulate the coolant but not 100% sure yet on alternator failure. mine sat for over 20 years and i got it running byut cleaning the tank, replacing the water pump and cleaning the injectors and idle air control valve. changing the water pump will be the biggest job i ever tried. did you ever have to lower the motor?
@@warrenpeas no I did not, just make sure you check what alternator you get as the one on mine wasn't right and caused me to shred 3 alternator belts, water pump is easy, the hard part is gonna be blessing the coolant
@@FunkieStelf I learned to bleed it. I had to flush and bleed over 10 times to make sure my pump was bad not an air pocket. Lowering the motor and taking off the timing cover and balancer seems very hard from the guide I have. Then redoing the timing too

How did you get your serpentine/AC bolt on so easily? Mine is such a tight fit
Just a little bit of pulling on the tensioner
