Two owners ordered the CARDONE 55-21118H on line. They ended up getting the 55-21118. They contacted me about this. This is why I'm to the point that I just order parts from Jim K at Applied GMC. Just sick of not getting the correct parts. Then get stuck on an off ramp on Interstate 40. In the middle of no were in the great state of New Mexico. Mile marker 226. We need to support our vendors.

Small world. Nothing to do with water pumps, but we broke down March 29th near mile marker 266 Westbound on I-40 ~40 miles from your problems. We had to be towed to Albuquerque because it was too close to the truck traffic for me to be comfortable getting it running again. I should have have pulled off the off ramp we passed less than a mile before she died. That would have saved AllState the cost of the tow.

Hmmm. I was limping west on I-40 heading towards GMCMI Tucson with a leaking water pump and a ferocious headwind when I saw Bob's coach up on the exit overpass. Now, I have no evidence for this, but I know New Mexico is home to some spooky stuff - extraterrestrials and the like, so is it possible there is some sort of energy vortex that feeds off GMC woes along I-40? A New Mexico version of the Bermuda Triangle? Shocked

Be safe out there.

You might have something there Richard. On the way home from Phoenix yesterday we came accross a GMC at the side of I40, just outside the NM border. He was in the process of changing his malfunctioning alternator. Could be related ????
