The bearings on my water pump finally gave out so I am in the market for on=

t was on it.

The pump has the nut on the shaft for the pulley but unless the pulley is k=
eyed on it looks more like it is pressed on although I do have a bit of mot=
ion of the pulley on the shaft. It seems most new pumps (Moss for example) =
have the pulleys now pressed on
 so I assume that is the preferred solution for replacement.

Re the fan I was looking at a six blade but saw no fans in the Moss catalog=
 (NA?) as they look for a solution I recall to rivets popping on the metal =
ones and not sure re the plastic blade solution.

Looking for any feed back on obtaining a new water pump and an upgraded fan=
 blade.

Thanks !
