[C320-list] Water pump

[Paul Rickman]

Michael,

You don't say that you have even tried to do anything to it. Is everything tight???

Sorry, I don't know anything about the Perkins. But the first thing I would do is
tighten all the connections and screws in the cover of the pump.

Has anyone replaced their fresh water pump on an old Perkins. I am in the Bahamas and have noticed a very small amount of coolant drip on the bottom of the water pump. I am wondering how long it may last or should it be replaced the pump before I make the 200 mile trip home. Of course if I were in the states there would be no question but getting it here will be a challenge. Any ideasMichael  Ferguson169 Nauti Clew
