52020, Overheating Problem/ Impeller shaft Question to all
Posted by dsm2g, Dec-31-69 06:00 PM

Has anyone experience overheating with the w/p going out without it leaking?
I think the impeller shaft is weak or loose.
But don't really know.
Only on long distance runs I have an overheating problem.
I have a new radaitor and I also flushed the system out to.
I took out my thermostat but still problem persists.
So I'm just going to change my Temp. switch, CTS, and W/P.
I can get a refurbished w/p for only 20 bucks.
So if it is not that it didn't cost me alot of money.
Any suggestions will help.
Thanks.

a brand new waterpump is only about $100. Why go with something "refurbished" that you can't count on?

Do a leakdown, you may have a blown HG.

with all that invested in your engine why not go for a fluydine? they are only like 400 now for our cars. would help with all that extra heat that is generated.
