plastic impeller on water pump

Post by danssurf82 »

does anyone know how long/how many km's a plastic impeller on a water pump should last before it falls apart?

cheers

why do you ask?

some impellors last ages and some shit themselves prety quick!

ive had a new one die because i left it too long sitting after its first use without washing out after it first use yet the one i have now has lasted ages because even during the colder months when not in use i still start it up with muffs on once a month and give it a run!
hope this helps or makes sense for that matter :lol:

good tip for the boat! might start doing that over this winter...


but sorry i must specify it came out of a ford tx5 with 260000kms on it.

trying to work out if the timing belt was done at 200000kms or maybe the water pump fell apart cause it was 60000kms overdue!!
