New waterpump installed part 2

Posted on February 15, 2009 in Maintenance | View Comments (0)

Removed the new waterpump last week and bought a Midlock recoil M8 set. Today we used this set to make new thread in the aluminium blockpart of the V8, after which we succesfully installed the new waterpump and all other parts! So 'Ché' is finally out on the road again!

Installed the new Airtex waterpump in the Ranchero this weekend, but one of the bolts would not fasten in the front cilinder cover, and now the thread in the cover is gone, shit! So it's leaking water now. I will have to try and make new oversized thread in the aluminium cover for a bigger bolt, hopefully this will fix the leak immediately. Otherwise everything has to come off again to fix a new seal and try again (or even buy a new cilinder cover..) oephh my back hurts!

Meanwhile my '67 Mustang is waiting in the garage for better weather!

Parked my '69 Ranchero about 2 months ago with a badly leaking waterpump, now it was time to remove it and order a replacement!
