Bad Water Pump?

[Guero]

What are the signs of a bad water pump? I took mine of but it looks fine. Im still gonna replace it. just Curios.

A bad bearing or seal shows up as coolant dripping/oozing from the seep hole on the botton of the pump. Noise would also be a sign.

I think I've once heard of an impellar failure, so I would not remotely think that is an issue. Bearing failure and afterwards seal failure are the most common issues.

Really, you'll know it (water leak) if it's needing replacement.

Good luck with the cooling system bud.

ok well my radiotor is rotten so im getting a new one!!!!! So everything should be up and running. if it still gets hot, could it be something wrong with the engine?

That's always a possibility (regarding the motor).

For your radiator, are you upgrading? It might be wise, given the temps you see and your mods.

Good luck bud.
