Message They are DD's, and I was getting the Water Pumps Locally ( Kragen ).. Some LOOKED OEM.. some did not.. This was about the last two years.. after doing a Timing Belt and WP Change..

Think I ended up changing 4 or 5 Total Water pumps.. ( Two Cars ).. The Final has one car with a Nissan WP, one has a 'Unknown' WP..

The last year ( ~5K Miles each Car ) has gotten the Water Pump Eating Stopped.. not sure why.

One of them. the Bearing Housing was Bored too Big, and the Bearing slid out causing the Impeller to hit internally in the Pump.. Did not leak, but the Belt would not stay on.. this one looked 'Nissan' but did not come from there.

One, the Seal Leaked.. Normal Drip, Drip.. had to replace

One, the bearing committed suicide.. no leak.. but the bearing sounded like Krap and wiggled.

One the Bearing committed suicide, Lost all fluids.. That one was bad..

There might have been others.. but it all gets lost in the Blur

One has Underdrive Crank pulley.. One is Stock pulleys
