Everyone loves a happy ending...
I'd do that valve adjust... one more thing not to worry about.
And I'd move "injectors" (recondition or replace) up the priority list.

This beast just keeps throwing things at me. Water pump is now leaking out of the weep hole. I guess its teaching me how to work on it. I just hate the wait for parts.

The joys of owning a 30 year old vehicle.
Maybe add a full set of underbody bushes (panhard, tierods, draglinks etc), seals for clutch slave cylinder, new vacuum boosters (clutch and brake), clutch kit plus fork and throwout bearing, brake hoses, brake rotors.
I think that's about all that I've HAD to replace on (all of) mine... a spare alternator and vacuum pump, viscous hub and fan blade, radiator shrouds, even radiator, could also be added to the spares bin...

as a quick and dirty, and very temporary, you can put breakfast in the radiator... crack an egg and a couple tablespoons of ground black pepper. It will seal it from the inside out.

At least you have a water pump you can get to. Unlike the RB30, where you have to pull the harmonic balance, timing cover and timing belt before even starting on the pump.:{
My advice is: not to follow my advice.

Try doing it on a toymotor... all that, plus the access is through knockouts in the body you need a small japanese child's hands to reach through!!

Are the 4 bolts that hold the pulley on reusable? New pump didn't come with them. If not, anybody know the specs on them?

Yep. They are not over-torque bolts. The torque values should be list in the manuals you can download from this forum.
Page 3-2 lists the 4.2 litre engine water pump to engine block bolts as 16-19 nm and nuts as 30-40nm. Although It doesn't specify if it is the 4.2 petrol or diesel.
