jagman Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 Drain for any water passing the bearing - it’s open Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob W Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 I run a short length of hose off of the outlet past the alternator, if the pump does fail it won’t piss all over the alternator. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bender Posted June 26, 2018 Author Share Posted June 26, 2018 So if small drops comes out under a pressure (high revs) from there should i start thinking about new water pump ? Wysłane z mojego SM-G950F przy użyciu Tapatalka Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swampy442 Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 If water comes out at all, its called a dry drain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bender Posted June 27, 2018 Author Share Posted June 27, 2018 So do i need to start look around for a new pump ? Wysłane z mojego SM-G950F przy użyciu Tapatalka Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jagman Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 Yes - the drain is there to show a leak in the bearing seal and prevent a pressure build up that could pop the bearing seal out - these pumps are one of the crappiest I’ve seen and only last 100000 miles - change them before this mileage . By crappy, 1 they don’t last ,2 any overtight belt /too short belt and the housing cracks , the bolt layout is crap , and I had jag pumps from 1962 work as new and you can balance them !!

jagman Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 There are two different impeller materials - the non metallic ones supposed to be better , oem and non oem castings seem to be the same poor level Cheap enough , just replace at around 70 k along with the alternator (another rare poor quality Toyota thing) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SupraTRD_MK4 Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 Damn thats a bummmer right there. And I was hoping the 2nd hand one I got would atleast be okay as it came off an import engine and it has the plastic impellar. Guess will just get a new one then.
