Another water pump thread
 

well she's started leaking and from what I have read the pump needs a bit of an overhaul. I figure since I am doing it I might as well do the whole lot. Been looking around and seen this kit from OTR

http://www.off-the-road.de/index.php?lang=1&

any thoughts on it? I was wondering if there was anywhere in the UK that might be cheaper.


Thanks for any input

An upgrade for the XT1200Super Ten ??

Did you mean this kit?

lol i wish, maybe in the future

ye that's it. Mute point now as just been stung with an unrelated bill and skint as soon as my wages go in.

Coolant leaking from the bottom so going to have buy the least amount of parts needed to repair.. any recommendations

is it leaking from the gasket/mating surface?..could you not just use gasket goo as a cheap and quick repair?

If it's leaking from the bottom (the drain hole/tell-tale) then you have a mechanical seal failure. You will have to buy a complete set of seals, bearing, 'o'-rings and gaskets - basically everything that is supplied in the �50 OTR kit shown in the link mentioned earlier. There are no shortcuts. Complete replacement of these parts is the only option.

This thread covers the parts needed and what to do and this thread might be of help too.
