My water pump is starting to leak and making noise and I am getting ready to purchase another one. I got about 80k out of this one and have had trouble with some brands only getting about 20k out of others. I can't find my record on the brand that I got the most mileage from. All that I have purchased came from one of two list vendors that we are all familiar with. I have searched the archives butr can't find any recommendations on particular brand recommendations. I do remember a discussion some time back where I think that I will soak the pump in coolant for a few days before installing. Does anyone have any recommendations for any particular brand. Looks to be about 3-4 commonly found out there. Thanks list and Merry Christmas to everyone. David Clarkson 1990 Westfalia |
