Title: water pump
Post by hepburn on Dec 14^th, 2005, 6:36pm

I suspect I might be needing a water pump for a late 94 2.0 ghia frog eye. Anyone got one if I need it, or would I be better off buying a new one? What sort of cost is involved?

I stress I do need to confirm it is the pump yet but there is definately a leak in that area. Hoping it may be a hose...

Ive just sorted a leak on mine today.
Thought it might be a split hose but turned out to be scale/corrosion on the water pump where the hose is attached, I think it built up under the hose and forced the silly spring clip thing open so it started leaking.

All cleaned up now and jubilee clip installed ;)

Yep, did it on the car, mines the 24v but could be a similar problem with yours.
I scraped off what i could witha knife then wire brushed the rest till it was shiny :)
Must have taken 2 or 3mm of stuff off it.
