water pump last for you? I have 142k miles on my original one. Just wanted to see how long it lasted for you guys. I'm sure theres people here with more miles than mine.
im not sure if mine has the plastic impeller.About 81K and that nasty plastic impeller disintegrated.
Not having any coolant moving around in your aluminum block engine isn't a good thing...
And the roll restrictors (motor mounts) were shot at the same time.
This is a 2.5 SVT though
oh cool B-)this has been posted before, the zetec doesn't have waterpump failures like the duratec ... plus it is like a tradiational waterpump and has a weep hole so you can check it that way ....
thank god my water pump doesnt run with the timing belt.btw I have 178k on my original to my knowledge ... knock on wood ... Unless you have no confidence in your car getting you home I wouldn't worry about something like this until a) it fails or b) your chaning the timing belt and can get to it easy and want peace of mind ...
thank god my water pump doesnt run with the timing belt.
Sorta.none of them run off the timing belt. however the water pump is mounted to the block behind the timing belt. you have to take the timing belt off to remove the water pump even though its not driving it.
