>It looks like our beloved 85 Westy will be needing a new water pump.
The PO had replaced the one in my 85, but when I bought it and had my mechanic check it over, he said it was leaking. He took it off and found the gasket slightly twisted. He said that it was a common problem because the thing was so durned hard to get at. So be careful to get the gasket on straight and flat. |
