Message This is my first time posting. I just don't know what else to do and need help badly.. I had my water pump belt slip off while I was driving and it bent the hell out of it. I bought an OEM nissan water pump and installed it, making sure to tighten evey bolt and hose clamp and put eveything back together correctly. After I was finished I tried starting the car, it died immediately after. I then went to take a look and smelled something burning and it smelled electrical, like a fuse. Also while running it sounded similar to when I had a blown head gasket, which was just replaced a week ago. I'm now lost. Could I have somehow put the crankshaft pulley on wrong causing bent valves or a fuse go ? I just don't know. PLEASE HELP...
