Paul, I just went through this. I replaced a leaking water pump with what appeared to be a perfectly good re-built unit. It turned smoothly, the shaft felt firm (no sideways movement). It leaked! Wa

Good evening all. I believe the water pump is starting to fail in the 79B. It has started squealing some and could be the cause of my slight overheating problems for the last month or so. Someone men

Hi Monte, I really don't think that the metal that the housing's made of means much relative to reliability. What counts is the bearing surfaces, etc. Perhaps the Moss rebuilds (?) are from a quality

It's a cut and dry replacement. Shouldn't take more than an hour. It's alot easier with these later Bs, 77-80 since you don't have to pull the radiator out. I disagree with the folks who say that the

You are right in that it is *possible* to make an aluminium water pump as good as a steel one. But the alu ones are repros and like much repro stuff are frequently lower quality than the OE, and ther

Another thing to look at is the bracket -- usually a steel stamping -- that allows the alt or gen to pivot in order to adjust belt tension. Sometime that piece has become bent, which misaligns the pu
