colab76 Posted December 8, 2009 Author Share Posted December 8, 2009 thanks guys! how difficult is it to rebuild a water pump on one of these? or should i say to find the parts to rebuild an h2o pump? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firemack Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 Luke,Most guys here have sent them out for a rebuild, the cost is about $100, and it is hard to find the right parts to do it yourself. I used Arthur Gould in New York $109, they did it right the first time- no problems at all.Firemack Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
engine2quarters Posted December 15, 2009 Share Posted December 15, 2009 My '45 EN-330 water pump complete rebuild was about $350 in Lubbock, TX. They did something that makes the engine run cooler than I ever saw it run. After sitting at idle for 2 1/2 hours, temp was still close to 140 degrees. Had to shut down then re-started with no problems. Usually, it wouldn't re-start until completely cooled down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
