Contour Enthusiasts Group Archives Forums Branches W. Great Lakes pic of mikeyboy's water pump

there it is. it is in one piece but there are cracks which run from the center in opposite dirctions. the large crack which you can clearly see in the pic has small amounts of material missing so that you can see light though it. also, the blades and the pully move independent from eachother. if i were you guys i would change yours to a metal one now. peace.

im glad you have that takin care off.

my water pump is bad on my car also but thats being takin

glad everything worked out mike and i agree Joe is a great guy, I cant thank him enough for everything he has done for me

when the pump goes bad, does it leave and pieces in the resevoir tank?

lu hey ron, thats what joe and i thought. when we got the old one off we were really concerned that it wasnt the problem. but it was. all of the impellars that we had seen off of other peoples cars were shrapnel. i think what the problem was is that the pulley was spinning independent of the impellar. peace.

gotta love plastics.

Glad to hear everything is up and running. Good job Joe. You da man.

i could swear i had a recall for the plastic water pump impeller on my 98 zetec!

now i see why!

nothing hurt i hope mike? no overheating?

mark

it was overheating. by the time i got back to the parking lot after making my 1/4 run it was pegged. joe helped me get it all going again and everything is fine now. thanks for your concern. later.
