[C320-list] Perkins Water Pump or ?

[Pat Moriarty]

TAKE THE BELT OFF AND START IT UP. THIS WILL ELIMINATE THE PUMP AND 
THE ALTERNATOR. IF THE NOISE IS STILL THERE IT MIGHT BE THE FRESH 
WATER PUMP OR A STARTER BEARING. OK NOW IF THERE IS NO NOISE AT START 
UP YOU KNOW WHERE TO LOOK, ENGINE WATER PUMP BEARING OR ALTERNATOR 
BEARING USUALLY THE FRONT ONE.  GOOD LUCK.
