:toilet: Is anyone else out there with a Renegade kit having as much trouble as I am keeping their water pump from grenading? I have gone through 2 in 2000
miles- the impeller just folds over on its self. Thanks in advance for any input. |

Cool..
V8 914 guys. Welcome to the board. This thread got some really good responses before I made it home this evening/morning. Thanks Sammy and DAD for helping this guy out. It is 100$ a restriction while cold problem. If you tend to drive the car hard before it is fully warmed up... you'll have to go to a restrictor and 16lb cap. I'm really surprised your not blowing water hoses off the block fittings. B |
